Kit parts

Tray

A recess cut into the plate that holds other parts: keys, a selector, an empty state waiting for its first thing.

Seats open in 11 days. Want one email that morning?

Anatomy

The recess every well in the kit uses. No images, no script.

Variants

  • Holding keys
  • Empty state
  • Inside a panel

States

  • Empty
  • Holding keys
  • One latched

Usage notes

The upper wall is in shadow and the lower lip catches the lamp: that is what makes it read as cut in.

Accessibility

  • A tray is presentation. When its keys are one control (only one can be down), use a selector: it is a real radio group.
  • An empty state says what goes here in words; the unlit lamp is a second signal.

Panel

A face plate that groups what belongs together: a head, a rule, then the parts. Screws only on device-like panels.

Selector

One mode of two to five: latching keys in a tray, one down at a time, each with a lamp that lights when chosen.

Key

Every button, and every link that acts like one: a cap on a skirt that drops below the plate when pressed.
