Although my main instrument panel will be cut by a professional, using a set of DXF files that he is drawing, I have begun drawing some of the miscellaneous switch panel overlays that I'll be producing myself. The first one I decided to tackle was the cockpit dimmer panel. I used FrontPanel Express to draw and print a full-size sample so I could verify spacing, readability, and other issues. I'm pretty happy with my first attempt.
Testing the knob sizes and spacing on a full-size printout helps immensely.
