Well the title pretty much explains it i want to be able to press this button and then the brush apears. I have no clue how to do this and i can't find a tutorial anywhere. I think it's pretty simple though.

Yea, it is. All you have to do after creating your func_brush and setting the "Start Disabled" keyvalue to "Yes", is to set your func_button to:

My Output> OnPressed
Target Input> Enable (your Target Entity will be your brush you want to appear).

So when you press the button it will reference the brush you want to appear, and it will instantly appear, texture and all.

I sent cricket50 a PM about this (it currently says he hasn't read it yet though), but I did edit it at the same time he was posting his last comment. I misread him to say he wanted his brush to disappear not Appear. So it doesn't say "post last edited" because I fixed it fast enough. I hope he gets a chance to see though.
