That meme is actually what inspired that hypothetical "layers in layers in radials" idea at the end. 😂

The "slash key" trick is something that I've used often (at least since the first Unorthodox Config) to create an empty center button in Radial Menus for my thumb to rest on. It actually works with key though. If you turned off "Display Binding Label" then the menus will only show the assigned icon. I use slash though because it's rarely a default binding so it's pretty safe to use as a dummy menu item.

VSCView. It doesn't have a 3D model of the controller for showing gyro movement but it is super clean for touch/digital inputs. When you install it look for the Grey Minimal theme (I think). It's the one I'm using in the video. I made it and it ships with the software.

Yup. Though I think sticks will have some difficulty with activation. Button Release is still your best bet but some sticks are really tough to push in while tilted. For instance, I wouldn't recommend this on the DS4 or a Logitech F310/F710. But yeah, it is technically possible with sticks. I even mentioned using the face buttons at the end.

What you'll want to do here is create a new Action Layer. In that Action Layer you'll want to put the Radial Menu Input Style on the Right Stick and then fill in the menu items with what you want. For the Activation Style you'll want either Always (if you want instant binding activation) or "Mode Shift Release" if you want to activate the binding when you release DPad Left. Then go back to the main Action Set and go to DPad Left. Instead of giving it a keyboard/mouse/Xbox binding there is a button just to the right of the binding name box for Action Sets/Layers. Press this and then have it Hold an Action Layer and select the one you made with the Radial Menu in it. Now when you hold DPad Left your Right Stick will become a Radial Menu.

Oh my goodness! I would've never figured that out on my own. Thank you so very much, Critical Input =)

I got so excited to see this comment because I’m currently experiencing this same issue. I did everything you said but still had no luck? Idk what it could be but it’s driving me nuts 😔😔😔

It's just a Radial Menu with 1-0 on it. The menu is positioned on the crosshair and is quite a bit smaller and less opaque than default. I designed it so that I could continue looking near the center of the screen, keeping my eye on the action, without losing much information of the game. It's subtle but helps me find exact numbers to help build muscle memory.

It's all gyro. I haven't used the touchpad in months. It's so much better utilized for buttons than to duplicate a function that the gyro is already doing.

Nope, no configs this time. There are too many variables to something like this so there aren't many things that could be placed into a skeleton.
