Relative Controls

[mroduner]

I'm currently using QLC+ with a Joystick; and for standard buttons, it works really well; What would be quite nice would be to be able to use the analog sticks in a relative manner.

For example: I assign the X and Y channels of my analog stick to an XY pad attached to a moving head. Instead of just using the raw values from the stick, use the values to either increment or decrement the current values. So say I push the stick up; instead of setting the channel to +255; it would take the current value, and add an offset to that.

This might be better served with a new control / widget type that reads and manipulates the DMX buffer directly, but I've not read the code well enough to know what the easiest / best solution is.

Hi, you're right here. I've noticed it too when I did the last changes to the HID plugin.
Thanks for reminding me this.

That would be very nice, controlling moving heads with Joystick relative, I think we want then adjust the accuracy or speed of the relative change too.

This has been implemented.
Will be available with the next release.
