I was wondering if it's possible to automatically show a tray?

For my example I really like basic remotes, I don't need the 100 buttons on my physical remote to operate my TV. So I make fully custom remotes which can only be achieved to my liking "layout wise" if I have all of the buttons in a tray.

(I prefer orderly rows/grid style so I can easily rearrange my buttons to anywhere I want them to be not having the d-pad allocated area in the middle of the screen blowing my grid style out).

Impressive layouts. Wish I had the patience for that.
