And as an extension - how do I change my controller layout while in game mode? I understand I can press the Steam button and then use my trackpad as a mouse, but I’d rather it just permanently behave as a mouse in game mode.

Basically I’d like to use the trackpads as mouse/scroll while browsing my library in Game Mode.

Thank you!

    I haven’t tested this, but game mode I understand is basically equivalent to big picture mode. So perhaps going to the desktop and setting up your preferences for BPM could work?

      Nice suggestion! I’ll try this out, hopefully it works!

        So unfortunately either I couldn’t find the option or what I thought was the option didn’t have any effect in game mode :/

          Finally got around to tinkering and sorry, no luck here either. I thought BPM had it’s own controller setting, but it seems like everything just maps to the desktop control scheme on the deck. Have to agree with the top comment I don’t think this is currently possible

            That really sucks, but I appreciate you looking!
