Virtual detents #15

Closed jeromebaum closed 2 years ago

Do we know if the dial supports virtual detents? This would be a very cool feature to add, for feedback.

I also thought I read somewhere that it supports vibration feedback.

Following up on this - I managed to send some HID messages to enable/disable haptic feedback based virtual detents and control the resolution. You can also send a HID message to trigger a haptic feedback. So it is definitely possible.
