This blueprint is extended version for controlling lights and switches with the IKEA four button remote (the square ones), integrated via ZHA.
It extends @Malte’s version (no switches) which is extending @SwerveShot’s version (incomplete and hasn’t seen any recent activity) which is based on the work of @frenck with the five button version.
Pressing the up button will turn on the lights at the last set brightness (unless the force brightness is toggled on in the blueprint) and turn on configured switches.
Pressing the down button will turn the lights and switches off again.
Pressing and holding the up/down buttons will change the brightness smoothly and can be pressed and hold until the brightness is satisfactory.
The “left” and “right” buttons can be assigned to a short and long button press action. This allows you to assign, e.g., a scene or anything else. Use the left and right button events with care, as before the long press event is sent, the “on” event gets triggered.
This is what the Blueprint looks like from the UI:

name: IKEA four button remote for switches and lights
description: 'Control lights and switches with an IKEA four button remote (the square ones),
for use with [ZHA](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/zha/).
Extends [Malte](https://community.home-assistant.io/u/Malte)''s [version](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/zha-ikea-four-button-remote-styrbar-for-lights-e2001-e2002/384482)
which is based on [SwerveShot](https://community.home-assistant.io/u/SwerveShot)''s [version](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/zha-ikea-four-button-remote-for-lights/347657)
which is based on the work of [frenck](https://community.home-assistant.io/u/frenck)
with the five button version.
Pressing the up button will turn on the lights at the last set brightness (unless
the force brightness is toggled on in the blueprint) and turn on selected switches.
Pressing the down button will turn the lights off again and turn off selected switches.
Pressing and holding the up/down buttons will change the brightness smoothly and
can be pressed and hold until the brightness is satisfactory.
The "left" and "right" buttons can be assigned to a short and long button press
action. This allows you to assign, e.g., a scene or anything else. Use the left
and right button events with care, as before the long press event is sent, the
"on" event gets triggered.
