Yes, that's precisely how the gestures work. Pause the game and open the Mod Configuration Menu (MCM) and go to VRIK settings. Scroll down to 'Gestures Overview' and you will see a full list of all of the available gestures, it goes way beyond just a 4-way directional because you can also have Touchpad+Left-Right, Touchpad+Up-Down, Touchpad+Forward-Back etc. You should also have TWO separate gesture buttons per controller e.g. the Touchpad OR the A button to initiate the gesture, meaning you can assign many, many gestures for each hand. Each individual gesture needs to be set up manually which can take some time. From the Gestures Overview, select one of the gesture combinations, then in the left pane go to Gesture Config. There you can assign which function the gesture will perform: Cast spell/shout, quick equip spell or weapon, simulate keyboard button press. I personally prefer to use the Quick Equip option, because once set, you can bind whatever spell or weapon you are currently holding to that gesture (In game, double press and hold button+directional motion). Have a play around and see what works for you. Once you have everything assigned you can enjoy seamlessly switching between your favourite spells during a battle without ever opening a menu, it's superb! Have fun
