Finding a big picture mode option outside of big picture mode!
After having this confirmed
https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/2747650363457624947/?tscn=1538216200
I'd like to turn it into a suggestion.

Please can we have the Controller Options, including Steam Input Per Game, somewhere outside of big picture mode?
It's getting tedious going in and out of big picture for one option.

I have a PS4 controller.
Some games support that natively.
Steam has "PlayStation Configuration Support", which when enabled, makes games think it's an xbox contoller.
This helps with games that don't support PS4 controllers.
Sometimes I prefer to use InputMapper instead (like DS4Win).

Unfortunately, having that enabled in a game that supports the PS4 controller natively causes problems.

I didn't want to have to turn PlayStation Configuration Support on and off for ALL games as I went between games.
I then found there's a way to disable it on a game by game basis.
I struggled to find the option, until learning that it's only available in Big Picture Mode.

1. Start Big Picture Mode
2. Library
3. Click a game
4. Manage Game
5. Controller Options

From here I can "force off" the steam controller support for just that game.

If that setting exists outside of big picture mode, please point it out to me, I'd be very grateful.

Otherwise, may I make the suggestion that valve bring the Controller Options, including Steam Input Per Game, to the typical client outside of big picture mode.

Anyone?

+1
i have also asked for a non-bpm way to change controller settings, because bpm is buggy and slow, and accessing the controller settings shouldnt need it in the first place.

Just one reason why I stuck to using DS4Windows. Steam support for DS4 is nice but requiring the fiddling on a per game basis is tedious. Especially when We need to use BPM interface while using default/desktop mode.

Thought i'd bump this to provide an update.

You have to opt into the beta to get this option though.
