#747
## Description of change
The old approach called ImGui’s `SetScrollHereY()` while the options
list was still being laid out. That caused one-frame scroll corrections
and edge-snap jitter near scroll boundaries.
The new approach in `build_options_tab()`:
1. **On click** - set a flag (`options_scroll_pending` for categories,
`options_scroll_top` for group headers).
2. **During layout** - when building the target category, record its
content position with `GetCursorPosY()` (don’t scroll yet).
3. **After all options are built** - apply scroll once by setting
`window->Scroll.y` directly, and only if the position actually needs to
change (0.5px threshold).
That deferred, single-pass scroll avoids the shake while still
supporting scroll-up, scroll-down, and re-click-to-recenter.
## Testing
In spicecfg.exe and in-game overlay, Options tab:
Open groups with many categories
Scroll content down manually, then click a higher category in the left
nav - content scrolls up to that section
Re-click the same category after manual scroll - jumps back without
shake
Rapid re-clicks when already aligned - no jitter
Switch group headers - still scrolls to top; re-click at top - no shake

## Description of change
Generated cards now start with E0040100 to fully match real cards. The
placeholder example `E004010000000000` is replaced with
`E0040100FFFFFFFF`.
The invalid placeholder/fallback PCBID `04040000000000000000` is
replaced with `01201000000000010101`, which contains a valid
header/checksum, making it closer resemble a real PCBID while still
clearly being an example.

Create three distinct layers for the overlay:
1. Bottommost persistent layer - non-interactable layer that is always
on. This was only for notifications, but now the FPS widget lives here
as well.
2. Overlay windows layer - most interactable windows go here.
3. Topmost main menu - this is reserved for the main menu (escape key)
and this is a modal dialog that occludes the layers below.
Why?
- `toggle overlay` behavior with FPS widget *also* toggling on/off was a
bit confusing (now they're two separate keys)
- FPS widget is popular, but it caused the entire overlay to be active,
which affects how input is handled
- the main menu being a standalone window was a little awkward (now it's
a modal)

## Description of change
spicecfg is a 32-bit application. When it uses the ASIO SDK it only saw
the 32-bit drivers.
There are some ASIO drivers that have different names under 32-bit and
64-bit (Xonar AE is one of them)... so we have to manually scan the
registry and surface both the WOW32 and WOW64 nodes.

Checked both 32-bit and 64-bit configurator, identical results.
## Description of change
**Configurator (spicecfg.exe)**
- Attempts to create a D3D9 device on startup and uses the hardware
ImGui DX9 path when successful; falls back to the existing software
rasterizer automatically if D3D9 init fails.
- Rewrites the configurator window loop: refresh-rate-aware render
timer, minimize/resize/`WM_DISPLAYCHANGE` handling, direct Win32 ->
ImGui input (keyboard, mouse, wheel), and optimized software painting
via `SetDIBitsToDevice` instead of per-frame GDI `HBITMAP` allocation.
**Overlay / input (scoped to standalone configurator)**
- Skips expensive per-frame rawinput polling in
`ImGui_ImplSpice_NewFrame` when `CONFIGURATOR_STANDALONE` is set (Win32
messages drive input instead).
- Adds software-renderer idle-frame detection (`sw_pixels_dirty` +
draw-data hash) so spicecfg only repaints when pixels actually change.
- Adds `ImGuiWindowFlags_NoScrollWithMouse` on the configurator root
window to prevent scroll jolt on non-scrollable child widgets.

Related to #181
## Description of change
This PR removes two features marked as "experimental" for analog axis -
`Delay` and `Relative Axis`.
They have been in spice as experimental option for almost 2 years.. but
they have a fundamental problem of being tied to how often the analog is
polled. Not just how often the game's I/O emulation code polls it, but
literally any source (spice API, overlay, etc).
For `Delay`, the only real usage I'm aware of is for #181 which is
delaying IIDX turntable input. For this, I will follow up with a
separate PR that adds back the delay option specifically for IIDX.
For `Relative Axis` - I'm not quite sure if any one actually uses this.
This could be implemented per-game if some game demands it. Polaris
Chord already has one, for example.

## Description of change
Currently, all analogs are treated as circular values that wrap around.
This works for knobs and turntables, but can get weird for linear values
(like tilt sensors and sliders) especially once analog options are
enabled, such as sensitivity.
This PR groups analogs into 3 buckets: circular, linear (centered), and
linear (positive). Linear types get different algorithms applied to it
when options are set (e.g., sensitivity caps out at 0, 1 instead of
wrapping around).
In linear mode:
* Sensitivity value applies an exponential response curve (power curve)
to the original value.
* Multiplier/divisor serves as a linear cut-off.
* Relative mode works as you expect, but of course, values don't wrap
around.
* Invert and deadzone work as you expect (since they applied to the
controller input anyway)
* Smoothing is removed from the UI and has no effect.
* Delay is unaffected.
Also, fix a small bug with -/+ button not working for analog `Delay`
option.

## Description of change
Some crappy DDR soft mats (either USB-based or console pads with crappy
adapters that lack a dedicated "DDR pad mode") use X and Y analog axis
for arrows, which means they cannot cleanly report Up+Down or Left+Right
input.
According to some ancient Stepmania code, a lot of these report a middle
value (value between center and right, for example, for left+right).
Borrow this hack from Stepmania and implement it in spice as analog
input for DDR.
Also, for rawinput/xinput automatic bind scenario, update the logic so
that face buttons are always detected before analog axis / dpads for
consistency. This would help with binding any DDR pads that
simultaneously input face buttons / dpad / analog axis, so that we can
prefer face buttons when detected.
## Testing
I don't have any soft mats that have this, but it was tested with an
xbox controller.

By default, BAT Positive / Negative binds trigger when the stick is

This needs a bit more customization since:

2. User may want to adjust the sensitivity (e.g., guitar controller tilt
angle to trigger wailing).

## Description of change
Adds preliminary support for XInput controllers. Enough to manually bind
buttons and map analogs.
This was a lot more background work than expected, but that is the
nature of unnecessary hobbies I guess. Most things in here are obvious,
so here's the non-obvious thoughts and notes:
1. All the XP stuff is optional, if the toolchain isn't available it
won't even try
2. The docker build is the "known good" build and now has all the
required tools for XP and checking binaries
a. If you're OK with it, can add the XP_MUST_BUILD flag to
build_docker.sh
4. New `SPICE_XP` flag to comment out blocks
5. We could technically build using the Docker image I've made for my XP
compatible LLVM toolchain, but combining the binaries into a single zip
at the end of it is somewhat tedious, so I've chosen to grab the
binaries from my release
6. I also wrote a DLL checker to make sure the final binaries are
_actually_ XP compatible, which found some issues on x86_64 (I don't
know a single game that runs on 64 bit XP, but it wasn't too much effort
so whatever). This also won't run if missing, just to save the trouble.
7. The build script is still pretty shit, I've made some minor
improvements
a. `/usr/bin/env bash` instead of `/bin/bash` as it's more correct
b. Adding `-it` to the docker build, so Ctrl+C actually halts it
c. Main issue is that failures don't halt, because of the custom error
catching function. This has caused a lot of frustration, maybe we can
change that
## Testing
It runs on 32 and 64 bit installs of XP. My jubeat cab is on Win10 these
days and I haven't got around to testing an actual game, but I've
distributed test builds of this to people who *have* confirmed it works
as expected.
## Description of change
Adds `-mainmonitor` option which changes the monitor layout before
launching the game. This is much more reliable than the old `-monitor`
option which operated at DX9 level. This works for TDJ/UFC subscreens,
for example.
Rename `-monitor` option to `-dx9mainadapter` to discourage use.
`-monitor` will continue to work, of course.
Changing of primary monitor happens first before any orientation changes
/ refresh rate changes, which means those options will result in the
logically correct configuration.
Create a new option category for `Monitor` (rotate, refresh rate, etc).
Add a monitor selection widget for `-mainmonitor` option in the
configurator.
Improve how we log names of monitors in the log during boot - should be
less of "Generic PnP Monitor" after this.

### Controller Presets
Add a new "Presets" tab to spicecfg that allows users to save, load, and
manage controller binding presets.
#### Save Presets
- Capture all current button, analog, and light bindings as a preset
- "Assign Labels" dialog prompts the user to name each source device
(e.g. "Player 1", "Player 2") before saving
- Device IDs are replaced with these labels, making presets portable
across different machines
- Presets are stored in `%APPDATA%/spice2x/spicetools_presets.xml`
#### Load / Apply Presets
- Preset list shows name, type (Built-in / User), and binding counts
- Apply dialog maps each preset source label to a connected device or
keyboard
- Bindings are applied per-source, supporting multi-device setups (e.g.
two PHOENIXWAN controllers)
#### Edit / Delete Presets
- Rename source labels in saved presets (propagates to all bindings)
- Delete user presets
#### Built-in Presets
- PHOENIXWAN preset for Beatmania IIDX: P1/P2 buttons (1-7, Start,
EFFECT, VEFX), turntable analogs, and button lights
## Testing
* [x] Open spicecfg, go to Buttons tab, verify Presets section loads
* [x] Verify PHOENIXWAN builtin preset appears for Beatmania IIDX
* [x] Save a new preset: confirm "Assign Labels" dialog appears with
device descriptions as defaults
* [x] Apply a preset: confirm source column shows labels, popup does not
shrink
* [x] Edit labels on a saved preset: confirm rename propagates to all
bindings
* [x] Hover over a device source tooltip: confirm vKey shows as number

Add `Reset All` buttons to these tabs which clears out bindings to none

For keypads, introduce a special `Use Preset` button which lets users
pick between numpad and top row number keys.
Update UI-visible string used for vKeys, especially the numpad ones
(e.g., `.` is now `Numpad .` to distinguish from the regular `.`
period).
Breaking change: if the user never had `P1 Keypad 00` set, the default
will change from `Enter` to `Numpad -` since both enter keys trigger the
same. This will affect a small number of popn/ddr players. They can just
change it back.

## Description of change
I've always been annoyed with how long it takes to bind controller
lights, made a few improvements
1) added a button+window for automatically matching device lights to
game lights with the same name
2) added button(s) to cycle through all bound lights to visually confirm
location/function
3) added button to clear all bound lights
4) split SDVX lights into sections (Buttons, Valkyrie, Nemsys, Other)
with formatting, sorted based on current game spec
## Testing
Tested with multiple games and controllers (Faucetwo, custom con) and
matching always works if the descriptor strings are labeled correctly.
Not every controller labels their LEDs the same was as spice, but for
those that do this saves a ton of time clicking every box and testing
one by one.
The SDVX table split/formatting is important because myself (and several
friends) have tried binding to Wing/Controller lights and wondered why
they weren't working in game, when they are legacy Nemsys lights instead
of the strip lights handled by Valk/bi2x. I separated the sections
visually, with tooltips, plus sort the two sections based on active spec
to further minimize the chance of someone trying to use the wrong lights
for their game.
- Include order and forward decls were breaking button.h because a
declared but not defined struct can't be initiated (honestly this file
was cooked, crazy include order).
- `MAXINT` is GCC specific, `INT_MAX` is portable.
- InterlockedDecrement takes a LONG, not ULONG
- an imgui printf-style call using a direct string instead of %s (let's
ignore the fact that it's actually safe based on how the str is
constructed)
- missing `override` on a virtual subclass
- `CALLBACK` on a lambda threw me for a loop, but I believe moving it
after the arg list is the correct approach (see if it builds on gcc I
guess)
- `std::result_of` was removed in C++20, which the project is built with

## Description of change
Introduce a new modal dialog for picking out some of the options to
improve UX.
Implemented a few for now:
1. UI for picking ASIO drivers from a list (for -iidxasio, -sdvxasio,
-asioconvert, etc)
2. Button to generate card numbers for -card0 and card1
3. Processor Affinity selector (very similar to what's in Windows Task
Manager, list of checkboxes)
4. file selector (file open dialog for various file path overrides like
log file)
5. folder selector (folder override)
I wrote a selector for COM ports as well but how we use the value was
inconsistent (\\\\.\\COMx vs. COMx) and didn't see a huge point in it so
I didn't check it in.
