Hello again friends!
I am making progress on my custom steering wheel clock spring project that will allow me to have multiple buttons in the steering wheel. I will be utilizing a few of the buttons for RealDash , and using OneGauge to send the button press information to RealDash for mapping.
I am not advanced in this project enough to test out mapping the steering wheel buttons so I am hoping someone can help me with this question:
Within the C8 Theme, I have found 3 places on the screen to tap and reveal different information- i have indicated the areas on the attached photo.
If I were to provide 3 buttons, can they be assigned/mapped in a way that copies tapping the screen in those 3 places? I would like to toggle the different readings with my steering wheel buttons, and avoid tapping on the screen at all if possible (only when editing etc).
Thank you for any help here! Its been a big, gigantic project with so much to learn!
I Have had to teach myself advanced electronics, arduino coding, resistor ladders, 3d modelling and 3d printing, android systems, and currently still learning to use R D !
I think they are mostly there already with input called 'Steering Wheel Button #".
You can simulate steering wheel buttons 1-9 with keyboard. Simply press number 1 to 9 (not from numpad) and that will send a simulated steering wheel button press.

Oh wow , thank you for telling me!
The more i learn about this app, the more i just love it!
I am very excited to build this project now and implement my custom steering wheel buttons. I made a clock spring that sits inside of the aftermarket Ididit steering column. With arduino, im able to pass up to 30 illuminated buttons through the steering wheel now!
Im using them for stereo controls, cruise control, high beam flash/on & off, windshield washer, front & rear cameras and a custom push button turn signal system i designed which will swlf cancel just like a oem system only mine is fully digital and using magnetic sensors to kniw when a turn is completed.
Now i can for sure set aside some more buttons for realdash! Because im using the android radio (Joying), i made a button on the joying that can toggle between realdash and fullsize Waze navigation app.
This gonna be so damn cool! Hope i have a awsome build soon worthy of showing the capabikities of your wonderful app!
