Hardware rotary controller from two HID joystick buttons with accelleration.

#1 Post by ANCRM114 »

Would it be possible to use use hw_dial_add and put in two HID joystick buttons for hw_id_a, hw_id_b?

I ask because currently I am using my Honeycomb Bravo through SPAD.neXt. However SPAD does not support acceleration for HID Joysticks (yet, but who knows when). So when I use the rotary encoder that on the HC Bravo it shows to different buttons that get "pushed" for each click of the rotary encoder in either direction.

I just bought Air Manger and looking through the docs im curious if it might be possible to apply acceleration to the HC Bravo rotary controller.

You cannot use your joystick hardware with the dial API. You would have to script the acceleration in Lua, although I doubt that it will be as reliable as the acceleration from the dial API.
