Not sure if I’m the only one, but I tend to forget which keys I’ve assigned to cockpit views (or any other view actually). So I’ve set up an external tablet using an app called Matric, in which you can assign pc keyboard keys to custom buttons on the tablet. I took screenshots of each cockpit view then used those images as background for the corresponding keys on the tablet, and set the relevant keystroke in the app settings. I laid out the selection keys in roughly the same position as they are in the cockpit, in this case the A320. I find this very useful and wondered if others might do so too. I have12 selectable views. Link to photos : Proton Drive. Proton Drive.

Yes, I use the Elgato Stream Deck app for this. But it has a free version only for 6 buttons.
I like the idea of the picture in the button.. Great!
Thank you.
With SPAD I can avoid the Elgato app altogether, and assign views to any Streamdeck page/ key.
I assume the same is true for other control programming apps.
I don’t use SPAD, but I’m going to check the videos to see if I can use it in an interesting way. Thx
