shift key with joysticks?
« on: October 24, 2008, 10:54:22 pm »
It would really be nice if you could have shifted actions with joysticks. Could you just duplicate all the items in the drop down list but with "Shift + " before each one? Like "Shift + J1Up".

I'd like to have my u360 joystick work just like my mag stik plus does within mala. Plus it would allow for a lot more commands that can be executed with a u360.

Are you talking about the shift key on the keyboard or an allocated shifted key or an allocated joystick button?

I mean the normal shift key that you configure on the keyboard tab. For instance, setting J1Up to "move up by 1 in the list", and Shift+J1Up to "move up by a page in the list". Kind of like how the mouse settings allow having the shift button move up/down by a page. I'd like to be able to configure the same approach to page scrolling to my trackball/spinner panel, my mag stik plus panel, and my u360 panel.
