I received my keyboard yesterday. It took me 1h to find out that you have to activated the gamepad mode in the settings menu. Why it isn't activated by default? To get it working you still have to activated a profile which uses it...shouldn't this be enough to prevent that someone activated the controller mode accidently?

It USED to be on by default. But we kept getting support requests from confused customers who couldn't use their real controllers, or some games would show controller icons when they didn't have one connected.
So now it's opt IN instead of opt OUT.

Thank you for the fast answer. Wouldn't it be possible to automatically turn the gamepad mode on if the user activates a profil that uses controller buttons?

In theory? Probably. The issue there is that the keyboard comes with default ones already on the board, and people tend to hit buttons by accident at first - So we're back to having confused customers.
I think the best approach here is to make a proper analog movement wizard guide in Wootility to explain how it works to them directly in the UI

Okay I understand. I think a wizard guide sounds like a good idea.
