What about building the terms like this: MDCX_EXTITEM_PRESSED_X_LEVEL_Y where X=[SHORT,LONG,…] Y=[HALF,FULL,…] Association: MDCX_EXTITEM_PRESSED_X_LEVEL_Y_ASSOCIATION. Furthermore for standard applications: MDCX_EXTITEM_PRESSED MDCX_EXTITEM_RELEASED

Changed joystick example to degree and added optional metric for amplitude in commit 7a9a2f

Currently we use the following codes: MDCX_JOYSTICK_NEUTRAL | Joystick neutral MDCX_JOYSTICK_NORTH | Joystick direction north MDCX_JOYSTICK_NORTH_EAST | Joystick direction north-east MDCX_JOYSTICK_EAST | Joystick direction east MDCX_JOYSTICK_SOUTH_EAST | Joystick direction south-east MDCX_JOYSTICK_SOUTH | Joystick direction south MDCX_JOYSTICK_SOUTH_WEST | Joystick direction south-west MDCX_JOYSTICK_WEST | Joystick direction west MDCX_JOYSTICK_NORTH_WEST | Joystick direction north-west which is very...
