A brief look at how i am using some of the new V5 features to create a retail type setup. The white buttons are custom buttons that link to automation commands to open different menus
the smaller buttons at the bottom of the screen have all been created by using the custom keyboard feature. As i continue to develop this setup ill post more images and setup instructions, youll need to bear with me as this isnt a simple setup and has taken me a while to get to where i am with it, and ive had to change some of the behaviour of my rules to accommodate this setup
i dont have a single menu with multiple categories (thats why there isnt a menu column down the centre of the pos, instead i use muliple menus as my categories
below you can see a before and after of the custom keyboard and the settings i have used to create the custom keyboard (ill go into the specific formatting soon)
