Does the Steam Controller have a button to switch D-Pad and Analog Stick?
One thing I tremendously enjoy about my Logitech F-510 is the ability to switch the d-pad with the left analog stick. This way I can use the stick instead of the d-pad and vice versa. This is very useful for some games when either of them is unused.
Is this possible with the Steam Controller? Be it a profile in the software or a hardware button like with the F-510.
Best Answer
The Steam controller can be totally remapped in software (via Big Picture mode). It doesn't have a mode button like the F-510, but you can configure what all the buttons and pads do on a per-game basis.
If you switch back and forth during a game, it might be difficult (though the mode switching might help here). If you don't switch at run time, you'll be fine.

The analog triggers on the Steam Controller have a distinct digital "click" at the end of the normal analog range distinguishing a "full pull" from a "soft pull", similar to the triggers on the Nintendo GameCube controller.Does Steam Controller have analog triggers?
Features.
