<div></div></div>The Buttons Tab is where you can set the functionality of the [buttons and pages](https://docs.rjmmusic.com/books/mastermind-editor-manual-46/page/buttons-and-pages "Buttons and Pages") on your device. This tab displays a virtual display of your device. At the bottom of the screen, there are selectors that let you choose which button page is visible. There is also a checkbox that lets you see what your device looks like in [IA Mode](https://docs.rjmmusic.com/books/mastermind-editor-manual-46/page/ia-mode "IA Mode"). Lastly, there's a field where you can name each button page.

You can perform functions on these buttons simply by clicking on them in virtual display.

<p class="callout warning">Please note that in the Mastermind GT editor, you click the displays over each button to work with them. In the Mastermind editor, you click on the button itself.</p>

You can swap buttons by simply clicking and dragging a button from one location to another.

Double clicking on a button opens up the [Button Edit Page](https://docs.rjmmusic.com/books/mastermind-editor-manual-46/page/button-edit-page "Button Edit Page"), where you can edit all of the button parameters in detail.

### Right-click menu

There is also a context menu that you can use by right-clicking on a button *(on a Mac, use Ctrl-click)*. This menu is used to provide quick access to certain settings. It has the following options:

**Type** - Sets the type of the button

**Group** - Sets the [button group](https://docs.rjmmusic.com/books/mastermind-editor-manual-46/page/buttons-and-pages "Buttons and Pages") number for this button

**Assign CC** - Allows you to choose a CC (continuous controller) message that controls a function on one of your devices. Any device that was chosen by manufacturer and model in the [Devices Tab](https://docs.rjmmusic.com/books/mastermind-editor-manual/page/devices-tab "Devices Tab") will have its CC messages available here

**Assign Default Buttons** *(GT Only)* - Sets the currently displayed button page to a page of buttons specifically designed to control one of your devices. Any device that was chosen by manufacturer and model in the [Devices Tab](https://docs.rjmmusic.com/books/mastermind-editor-manual-46/page/devices-tab "Devices Tab") will be listed as an option here. Please note that non-IA buttons such as presets and bank up/down will not be overwritten with new functions, but will change the buttons' [IA Mode](https://docs.rjmmusic.com/books/mastermind-editor-manual-46/page/ia-mode "IA Mode") functions

**Copy** and **Paste** - Allows you to copy and paste individual buttons from one location to another, even if they're on different pages

**Copy from Page** - Overwrites this page with a copy of the selected button page

**Copy to Page** - Copies this page to the selected button page, overwriting it

**Swap This Page with** - Swaps this page with the selected page

**Copy Page from Preset** - Overwrites this page with a copy of a preset's local button page. A dialog will pop up, requesting the number of the preset you wish to copy.
