Basic Features of JoyToKey
Main Window
You can create multiple profiles in the left panel. The 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 input or a mouse input.
For keyboard emulation, you can assign a single key (e.g. the 'X' key in the example below), a combination of multiple keys such as
Alt+F4, or a special key such as the "PRINT SCREEN" key.
Similarly, mouse emulation lets you assign mouse cursor movement, wheel movement, or left/middle/right clicks.
Auto Setting Wizard
The Auto Setting Wizard helps you configure basic key assignments in less than a minute!
Associate profiles with target applications
JoyToKey can automatically switch the active profile based on the currently focused application. To configure it, go to the menu: Settings -> Associate profiles with applications.
