I'm trying to use a Gravis Xterminator USB controller in dosbox, and it has two analog triggers on the top that map to axis 5. When i try to map this to any of the axes in the Dosbox mapper, it doesn't respond.

To clarify, i don't need DOS games to see more than four axes, just to let dosbox map axis 5 to one of those four.

Thanks!

Ack! I'm sorry. I don't think i mentioned these are analog triggers, so they register as an axis, and not buttons. I did try disabling buttonwrap, with no luck unfortunately.

axes are limited to the number of emulated axes at the moment,
only buttons are treated special (buttonwrap)
