Graphical User Interface Design Resources
Many years prior to launching its TouchLink® Touchpanels, Extron developed user interface designs for the MediaLink® controller family. Extron product engineers and developers concentrated on control panel layouts using consistent, familiar, and intuitive designs suitable for a variety of environments. Today, Extron continues to evolve user interface design with our TouchLink family of Touchpanels. The resources on this page will help you meet your customers’ expectations of interface designs that balance function, style, and ease-of-use.
