gSender 6.5 Beta Windows - no keyboard maping for PROBE operation

gSender 💡 Suggestion

I am trying to use a SNES Controller to use it as a pendant, and there does not seem to be a key binding for PROBE.

I am not sure if its supposed too or not.

but there is a key binding for Homing, so I thought maybe it makes sense that Probe should be there too.

I’ve spent some time this past week putting together a list of shortcuts we’ll be looking to add. Right now for probing I have two:

  • confirm probe
  • start probe

Any thoughts on that?

I didn’t realize it would actually be two mappings for that function

My goal is to limit the amount of keyboard interaction I need to do and use my joystick as my method of operation

Because of dust levels the mouse is almost inoperable most of the time

So I switched to a keyboard with a touchpad

And the touchpad is so sensitive and annoying I really won’t want to use the keyboard unless I absolutely have to

Any functionality that removes the need to use the keyboard as much as possible is desirable in my case

Since your comment, we’ve added in the ability to map the functions I mentioned above. Has that mapping access accomplished the functions you were hoping for?

I haven’t tried them extensively myself yet, but probing should now be fully accessible via your SNES controller :+1:

all looks good. I will try it a few times and confirm its working
