Designating TB/Spinner Controls in Tab Menu

[eyal8r]

I am having a problem with certain games. Sometimes the config isn't right- so I need to go into the Tab menu and tell it to use a spinner instead of a button or something like that. For example- on the game 'Cameltry', player 1 works great with a spinner. When it's P2's turn- you gotta use the joystick. So- I go into Tab menu to change that- but how do I type in to use the spinner controls instead of the joystick controls?  I hit the enter button on the P2 X Axis, but I can't type anything because it thinks that THOSE are the keys I am designating to use, instead. I hit enter and spin the spinner, and nothing happens. So how do I designate to use a spinner control instead of something else?  I have the same problem on certain TB games as well...
Thanks!

Almost sounds like you are are using a pre-0.85 version of mame.  Current mame has P2 X analog, P2 X dec, and P2 X inc for the X axis.  If you use current mame (with above listed items), map the spinner to the item with analog in the title.  You might have to try a few times (faster or slower) for it to work.  If it doesn't, you can edit the cfg by hand, or better, use the ctrlr feature.

If you are using a pre-0.85 version, sorry, you can't remap mice.
