USB gamepad controller mapping DPad is fully possible

[visko83]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• [X] I searched the existing issues and did not find anything similar.

Current Behavior

I have a simple USB gamepad controller (NES controller). In AntiMicroX's Controller mapping I am unable to assign the DPad buttons. For a DPad button in the application, only an Axis can be set, but the position is ignored. I can only assign: DPad Down as Axis 1 DPad Right as Axis 2 for DPad Up/Left I can not assign the controller's DPad Up/Left button.

Expected Behavior

I should be able to assign axis with its position: DPad Up - Axis 2: -32768 DPad Down - Axis 2: 32767 DPad Left - Axis 1: -32768 DPad Right - Axis 1: 32767

Steps To Reproduce

With an USB gamepad controller (like https://www.amazon.com/Controller-Compatible-Raspberry-Retropie-Emulator/dp/B0BLYWHBH8/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=usb+gamepad+controller&qid=1688206451&sr=8-1 )

1. click on Controller Mapping (bottom left)
2. scroll down to DPad section, start with DPad Up
3. click DPad Up on the controller -> nothing happens (last axis event is recognised as Axis 2: -32768)
4. (you automatically get to the DPad Left cell) click DPad Left on the controller -> nothing happens (last axis event is recognised as Axis 1: -32768)
5. (you automatically get to the DPad Down cell) click DPad Down on the controller -> recognised as Axis 2 (last axis event is recognised as Axis 2: 32767)
6. (you automatically get to the DPad Right cell) click DPad Right on the controller -> recognised as Axis 1 (last axis event is recognised as Axis 1: 32767)
