Re: [PATCH] [v2] Input: Add "Share" button to Microsoft Xbox One controller.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



>From the product information site
https://www.xbox.com/en-US/accessories/controllers/xbox-wireless-controller
this button is referred as "Share button":
"Stay on target with textured grip and a hybrid D-pad. Seamlessly
capture and share content with a dedicated Share button. Quickly pair
with, play on, and switch between devices "
Should we override the product button name and name it "Select" in
driver?   I am ok with either way but can we have a name everyone can
agree on and move forward?

Thanks!
Chris
