The thumbstick on the G13 gameboard can be configured to function as a joystick, mouse, or series of buttons. The thumbstick can also be configured differently for each M-Key in each profile. For example, you could have a game profile where M1 sets the thumbstick to work like a button pad, and M2 sets it to work as a mouse.
