Description Alan Prescott 2023-04-08 06:48:26 UTC

When calibrating a joystick with multiple axes (6 on a Logitech Extreme 3d Pro) it is really annoying that you have to cancel and restart the entire process if you make a single mistake on any axis calibration.
It would be much more user-friendly if it was possible to at least go back to the start of the individual axis calibration rather than the whole lot.
The Cancel button has no action and the only way to end the calibration is to click on the dialog quit button

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start the Game Controller calibration
2. Get to axis 4
3. Accidentally press a key twice
4. Click Cancel

OBSERVED RESULT
No action on Cancel, No Back/Restart Axis Calibration button

EXPECTED RESULT
Exit the calibration and restart it.
Preferably click on Back/Restart Axis Calibration

Thank you for the bug report, and I'm sorry we weren't able to look into it yet. A lot has changed since it was reported; can I ask you to see if this is still an issue with Plasma 6.4 or later? Thanks a lot!

There doesn't even appear to be a Calibrate option in System Setting -
Plasma 6.5

Running KDE Neon (Testing), as a VM - Plasma version 6.5
