I would like to be able to use the 8-way hat on my CH products 568 combatstick
to be able to control the view direction such that each of the 8 positions
would change the view angle by +-45 degrees relative to the positions next to
the current position.
The hat appears as axises 4 and 5 with -32676, 0 and 32676 as the only values
produced when looking at the output in the KDE Control Center ->
Peripherals -> Joystick dialog. I have set this up so that I can move the
view in 90 degree increments using the code below. But I don't know how to
get this to detect when both axis are at either min and/or max value which is
what would have to happen to be able to do 45 degree increments in the view
angle. There would also have to be a way to detect when either axis was zero
and I don't know how to code this either. I have looked for an example that
does this or something similar and have not been able to find anything like
this. Is it possible? If so can someone give me some hints?
