Notes on Parameters:

  • Parameters can be edited to any value, but very small or large numbers might result in errors or clipping:

    diameter: The diameter of the button (for polygons, this uses Fusion's 'Inscribed Polygon' function; for square, this is the length of each side)
    tolerance: The tolerance added to the 3x2mm mounting hole
    height: The height of the button cap
    fillet: Rounds off the top of the button to minimise sharp edges or create a domed effect
    polygonFillet: Rounds off the sides of the polygons to avoid sharp edges
    domeSquishFactor: Dome only - how much the button is compressed. Lower values = more squishing
    domeDiameter: Dome only - the diameter of the sphere used to make the button (also affects the height)
