POV *

* POV isn't quite like a button or quite like an axis under DirectInput -- it's more of a combination of these two types of devices. See the restrictions below.

Restrictions:

  1. When using IS to remap buttons, it is illegal to assign multiple buttons to a single DirectInput location.

    S1 IS B2
    S4 IS B2 REM this is a duplicate assignment

  2. While the ThrustMaster control POV "buttons" can be mapped to DirectInput button locations, at present you cannot re-map buttons to the DirectInput POV hat.

    S1 IS HU REM this kind of re-mapping doesn't exist
