You can run BetterTouchTool as a Stream Deck plugin, integrating it into individual buttons in the Stream Deck software, or BetterTouchTool can take over control of your Stream Deck completely. And you’re no longer limited to just folders and pages, now you can do things like hold a button and have a row of options temporarily change, allowing things like multi-press triggers. Fully scriptable buttons, the ability to control buttons from external scripts, and anything BetterTouchTool can do can be assigned to your Stream Deck. Setting up your Stream Deck with BetterTouchTool is a little more cumbersome than using the Stream Deck software, but the scope of capabilities is vastly larger. I’ve only begun to dig into the possibilities here. It’s a beta feature, but I’ve already found it to be an amazing extension to my Stream Deck. Instead you can set an identifier that matches the identifier you set in the Stream Deck software.It was promised some time ago, and after a long wait 1 BetterTouchTool has added Stream Deck support, and it’s awesome. When using BetterTouchTool in Plugin Mode, you can not specify the row / col directly.

Display Order In case you do have some more dynamic scenario, the order defined by the list in BTT might not be enough. If all rows are full, BTT automatically adds a new page and starts again on the top left of that page. It then continues by placing items in the next row - and so on. You can reorder that list by dragging the items around.īy default BetterTouchTool starts placing buttons / widgets from that list on the top left of the Stream Deck and then just continues until the row is full. The Stream Deck items in BTT are (like anything else in BTT) defined as a list. See next.īetterTouchTool Stream Deck Layout Concept In Plugin mode it is recommended to use fixed identifiers to correctly place the BTT items on your Stream Deck.
