You could actually set this up via a controller configuration as well though this would not let you alt-tab to desktop while the controller is connected:

The setting suppose to switch Big Picture mode when a steam configured controller is connected does not work.

This used to work for Any Controller with a Central Hub Button...
But, they were taken away, & only the STEAM Controller works
with this now... But they don't sell that anymore, so eventually
either it'll go back to the way it was, or we'll loose the function entirely...



We don't have a setting to launch BPM on controller connection though.

Ya, that is because you removed it... You know? Something people wanted to have...
Why was it removed? Don't tell me it was a needed thing for the New Library...
People want this available... I dun get why you would remove it... It was working
fine, there was never any problems with it...
