Re: Can LabVIEW take advantage of controller button pressure sensitivity?

It is the game controller device, not the reading of it in code that generally determines if an input is a button (on/off) or an axis (press sensitivity).
Exceptions like the xbox hat only make some axis behave as on/off buttons, but a button never behaves as an axis.

In general, if code reads the game controller input as an Axis, then the device returns press sensitivity. However, if a game controller input is reported as a button, then it is not press sensitive.
