The Region Button may be associated with any two-state audio or logic object such as a mute button or a logic source. Drag and drop the control you wish to associate from a control panel or the design pane on to the Region Button. The size and shape of the Region Button can be changed by moving the red handles which are shown when the object is selected. These turn points can be removed by left clicking on a handle whilst holding the shift key. Turn points may also be added by left clicking on a handle whilst holding the ctrl key, these will appear at a clockwise position from the selected handle.

The operation and appearance of the Region Button can be customized from the properties pane, for example the object can be set as a read/write button or as an indicator. A 'Wave file' can also be assigned from the Gallery to give an audible indication when the Region Button is 'on'.
