Basic Features of JoyToKey
Main Window
You can create multiple profiles in the left panel. Right panel shows the button-key assignments for the selected profile.
In the example below,
- Sticks are assigned to arrow keys
- When "Button 1" is pressed, key input "X" will be emulated
Button Assignment Window
For each joystick button, you can assign a keyboard or a mouse function.
For keyboard emulation, it can be a single keyboard input ('X' key in the example below, or it can be a combination of multiple keys like
Alt+F4, or it can be a special purpose key such as "PRINT SCREEN" key.
Similarly, mouse emulation mode will enable you to assign mouse cursor or wheel or left/middle/right click inputs.
