I do the same thing, I have a whirlpool glass top stove. And I did the same thing with the template overly buttons with labeling on it so I knew what the button was. This is one of those weird stoves that has a built-in refrigerator in the oven. So that you can put your lasagna in in the morning, keep it refrigerated all day, have it automatically turn on an hour before you get home, so that you can have dinner ready when you walk in your front door. Anyway that part of it I don’t use much because you need to read the display to work with it, but occasionally during big parties are use that part after the party so that I can put food away distributed to where it needs to go and keep extra food cold while I’m doing that.

There are not any buttons or switches; so I made a template having holes over the spots to issue commands. Centering pans over the hot spots if very easy just placing some of my fingers around the pan to judge where the heat is into with relation to the edges of the pan.

I recently got one of those electric glass stove tops and at first it was pretty hard to figure it out but with time, patience and just working with it, you can adjust to. It is a little hard to find out if the pots are centered or not so what I do is take a fork and kind of , gently feel for the rough edges or with my finger tips(only if cold of course) and center te pot tha way. While cooking the pots move so to keep them straight I use the fork method to make sure the pots are centered where I need them to be. This is how I work with mine and so far so good. My advice is to find what works for you but I am also interested on how other's work with this type of stoves.

I will be moving into a new apartment that has a flat top stove. I've never used this type of stove. Does anyone have tips on how to position the pots on this type of stove?
