I hope this time I have no repeated the post (I have searched)

I think this make more flexible scripts to allow user to define your own controls, because not all cameras capability has the same control ZM has.

For example:

Name: (any name)
Type: (button, map, checkbox, etc)
Parameter passed to script: (xcoord, ycoord, step, panspeed, etc)
Then at the edit control window the user can assign values for each object, like buttons, etc.

I know there is more dificult to making than this, but this will be a great feature!

For example, with something like this I will can adjust contrast at my IP camera with two buttons who send an http command.

Create the perl module defining the functions with the correct camera controls, then setup the module in the database and check the functions available to the web interface.

Cordel, I know this text, and I have setup my camera with this guideline, but how to create a new web control like buttons Contrast(+) and Contrast(-) without hacking the code?
ZM has a limited number of web controls available, but not all, and this make sense because can't support all the cameras available at the market.
Because this I think there is more usesul creating a minimal framework to create a user definable controls, adding the more used, like those ZM already has.

I think you refer to the perl script control (like AxisV2.pm)

How? Manually?

This is because my question. Web inteface not has a button named "Contrast"

Sorry if I not understood correctly your answer.
