Abstract
A method produces a control element having a touch-enabled surface, in which a paste-like material is applied on a carrier plate. At least one raised structure element is formed by the paste-like material on the carrier plate. For this purpose, a stencil having inherent stiffness is arranged above the carrier plate and the paste-like material is pushed through at least one recess in the stencil.
