Recording of dead zone

Hello! And thank you for great app!

Can you add metrics for dead zones of axises?

And recording of axis step

Developer

It's been a while, but did you try the latest version? There's a new axis test page that covers dead-zone and stepping, and even a circularity test.

Hi, yes, I can add that.

Can you help me understand what would be expected by the end user? You can already see where the dead zone is by looking at the numbers coming out when idle (from -32768 to 32767).  Should they be as a percentage, or floating point instead? Let me know how this can be improved.

With the axis step, I could plot points on an x-y graph where the coordinate land, would that work? Would you expect to measure the step of triggers as well?
