Hi! :)
Are all the controller themes pre-loaded into the Open Joystick Display app?
Are there some controller themes that have to be added/uploaded to this app? From what source do I find extra controller themes?
for example, I was hoping to find a PS4 controller graphic layout with different color action highlights, besides the white color. Where can I find all the controller themes? THANKS!

Also alternatively if you have color suggestions you can put them here and I can put them in the next theme release I'm working on.

Minor suggestion, just because it's bugging me: it looks like most of the controllers have buttons that have "depth," but the GameCube and Xbox controllers don't. Is there any way that could be made more consistent, one way or the other? In the end it wouldn't affect me much, since I'd probably mostly use the streamer themes, but I suppose it would please my OCD to see all the themes have exact stylistic consistency lol

@INS4NITY, thanks for the feedback! Truth be told I've had a couple people complain to me that some of the themes look a little flat. I'll end up re-designing them in the future. I've got some new themes for other controllers I'm working on and then Arduino support. After that I will have time to revisit them.

In the meantime, you're free to modify them to your liking, the existing themes are in the github repo and you can install your own as custom themes. If you think yours is better and want to add it to the main branch, feel free to send them over in discord or do a pull request and we can add it to the next release. You'll also get your name as a contributor if you do so :)

I may take a crack at tweaking the images in Illustrator, but the HTML/CSS stuff is beyond me. Would the themes still function properly as long as nothing was moved too drastically?

@INS4NITY sorry I didn't see your comment. Yes and no. If you use inkscape (which is what I used) and you just simply modify the fills and whatnot you should have okay luck. CorelDRAW and Illustrator might dump the metadata used for the SVG. Good news is, I just got around to updating the developer guide which will help you fix or add anything while modifying the SVGs:

Using SVGs:

Defining Styles:

I encourage you to join our discord because generally it makes it easier to have a back and forth discussion while you work on stuff.

Let me know how it goes!

Hello, I am new to OBS Studio and I'm working on my setup. I love the plugin, but there's one thing I can't figure out. I want to remove certain buttons from the overlay, but from what I can tell I am unable to. I deleted the buttons in the right-hand Input Mapper panel, but they're still displayed on the overlay. They no longer flash when pressed, but I don't understand the point of being able to remove the bind, but not the respective GUI element. Is this possible in Open Joystick Display? I've searched the official documentation and the web but I haven't been able to find anything on my specific problem, any help is greatly appreciated.

Hey @Mr. Mendelli , just press ESC on your keyboard to enter broadcast mode. That will remove the UX and get it ready for use for OBS. Your interface should look something like my attached image.

It's also in the documentation here: https://ojdproject.com/user-guide#stream

The bottom part is the tester, it will always illuminate regardless (while you're in configuration mode, not broadcast mode). The point is to make sure your controller is working (like your OS dialog). The mapper maps your buttons to the theme for you to be able to use for streaming. (See examples above)

For the mapper, we'll use this example. Let's say you're using an Xbox Controller but want to show an SNES skin because you're playing an emulator on stream.

Xbox Controller 0 (A), 1 (B), 2 (X), 3 (Y) is what shows on the tester. In your mapper you'll want to map 0=>B, 1=>A, 2=>Y, 3=>X (BAXY, Nintendo Controller Style). This allows you to use whatever controller you have with whatever theme. Attached is a video example of this working with my Xbox controller.
