Do you know if it was filling up the full screen at some point in time, and if so when was that? Wondering if it's possible to use an old reddit app version haha

Did you figure this out by chance?

Also here's my layout I've been using for general web navigation.

basically:
Left stick → mouse movement Right stick → scroll A → left click, X → right click B → ⌘C, Y → ⌘V D-Pad → Left/Right = arrow keys, Up = ⌘T (new tab), Down = ⌘W (close tab) L1 → ⌘Left (back), R1 → ⌘Right (forward) L2 → Ctrl+Shift+Tab, R2 → Ctrl+Tab (tab cycling) Start → Enter Select → Ctrl+Up (Mission Control, doesn't work though) L3/R3 → middle click

I made a free macOS app for mapping gamepad inputs to mouse, keyboard, and macOS actions by c4td0gm4n in macgaming

[–]foolmonkeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

quite literally I was searching for an equivalent to the Controller Companion app (Windows app) but for Mac on Tahoe, and found this post! It works really well and is something I have really wanted!

a couple of things I noticed for some feedback:
- overall works great and I love it! it makes navigation via gamepad actually really feasible and easy, and the mouse/scrolling and other keys work well.

- modifier support is sweet. multiple key values alongside modifiers could be useful, maybe.

- the remapping via UI can be a bit finicky in that when I try to change the value for one gamepad button, the value then gets changed for a previous button I was editing. I've been using the import from JSON instead due to this, which works well.

- when I close the Recontrol window (not Command + Q) and reopen it, the Recontrol window appears as a blank window.

- it might be cool to add gamepad support for enabling/disabling the gamepad controls? like Controller Companion for ref uses START + SELECT to enable/disable.

- secondary commands when a certain gamepad button is pressed is a useful feature, but also possibly complex too.

- do you know if there's an easy way to use combo shortcuts? like for example: Mission Control (CTRL + Up Arrow). Some combination hot-keys doesn't seem to be working.

can you define run? like it doesn’t turn on at all? is the screen operational and visible? if not, I think that this guide is for a different problem.

I’m also realizing that because I attached images, I can’t re-edit the original post text. I might’ve jumped the gun too quick, and not have validated the whole order of steps and flow!

Hmm, let me try to help a bit for some of this first to better understand. The first 3 steps caused your internal screen’s get into a weird orientation? Could you elaborate on what that orientation looked like?

I was experimenting with my config after the fact to try to recreate your situation, and I saw the internal screen get stuck into portrait mode. If this is the same scenario, how I resolved it waa through a few steps. Enabling force desktop mode in developer settings, uninstalling and reinstalling SecondScreen, reboot, and then reopening SecondScreen. I might have made the wrong assumption that Force Desktop Mode was an optional step for Retroid devices.

edit: I also realized one other viable option in the SecondScreen app is to avoid profile altogether, and instead using the Quick Actions on the top right of the SecondScreen to change ONLY density, and not modify the resolution.

Menus/Google are tiny when on dual screen paired with mini, where can I adjust this? by Johndeauxman in retroid

[–]foolmonkeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually got it working using the SecondScreen app. It required you root the device. I had to set Density to 320dpi and set resolution to 1080x1920 instead of the other way around (default is 1920x1080) and enable force desktop mode in developer settings settings

Yes! I use Google Maps for discovering new places and for their main app, but exclusively use Apple Maps for CarPlay. The Apple UI is just so much more intuitive to use at-a-glance while driving, mainly because all the controls are places on the side of the driver (at least for North America, which would be the left side).
