I am running OpenSCAD 2024.01.06. In the menu under Edit/Preferences there is a tab Buttons. I selected <Button 0> to be "Export as Obj". Where is it documented how I can place or press this button or can someone explain it?

These (along with the Axes tab) are referring to buttons belonging to a physical gamepad input or other controller/joystick etc. If you have one plugged in, then the button enumeration is dependent on your hardware+drivers. It's not for placing custom UI elements if that's what you were thinking.

Thanks. Yes I was hoping there was a mechanism to add the buttons to the UI or map them to a keystroke. Anyone know of a good way to emulate a gamepad buttons using a keyboard in linux?
