    Some suggestions regarding mouse control

    Hi!

    First of all I would like to thank you for a great software. I purchased it a few days ago and it's great to be able to play the game using a controller instead of mouse & keyboard
    I have a few suggestions regarding existing functions in your software:

    Mouse spring joystick mode
    Here I would like to be able to set where the center point is. This would help me make a better profile for games such as Diablo 3 where the character isn't exactly at the center of the screen.
    I understand if you don't want to clutter up the GUI with more sliders but perhaps an advanced area in the dialog window would be possible?

    Mouse "goto coordinates" event step
    Would it be possible to add positioning in % of screen width/height in addition to absolute and relative coordinates? It would help me make better profiles that work independant of resolution changes. (And also I think it's easier to configure )

    I hope you take these suggestions into consideration.

    Best regards,
    Grunch

    You can already set the center point for the mouse spring... when you first select MAP TO MOUSE SPRING it displays a dialog and there is a choice to set the "pivot point"... you can use the center or give it specific coordinates (and it includes a coordinate finder tool)

    As for the percentage support, that should be pretty easy to add I think... I'll look into it for the next version

    I was not aware of that pivot setting, I had been configuring the joystick through the "Setup Joystick..." button and it seems like it doesn't appear then.

    Thank you for considering adding a percentage based coordinates, if it isn't too much to ask I would also love if this was also available to the pivot point setting

    Best regards,

    It should also appear on SETUP JOYSTICK window... but only when the JOYSTICK MAPPING is changed there... so that means you aren't going to see it by just opening SETUP JOYSTICK if you already have mouse spring selected. While I'm quite sure it appeared there before (when you first enabled it) and you just don't remember, if you go to SETUP JOYSTICK and change your mapping and click OK, then open SETUP JOYSTICK again and select MAP TO MOUSE SPRING again, I think you'll see it. Again, it only appears when MAP TO MOUSE SPRING is first turned on, so if you already have it on then you need to turn it off and then on again to trigger the dialog to appear again.

    can the command to change pinnacle settings be used to turn mouse spring on or off or to swap profiles to disengage the mouse spring upon releasing the joystick and to turn it on again once the same joystick becomes activated?

    also how can the sliders be adjusted to prevent the mouse from moving outside of a restricted elliptical radius around the specified center of the screen.
