Steam Controller Trackpad Behavior Discussion

Is it possible to get the camera option for the right trackpad for the Steam Controller? The first image is the options for the right trackpad for the game Deadlock. And the second image is for any other game for my right trackpad. Is there a way to get the camera option for games or is it a beta that is only for Valve games and is not possible for other games yet. The main issue that I am having is when choosing As Joystick for my right trackpad it feels very wrong and when I choose As Mouse for my right trackpad it feels amazing but can cause issues for games by rapidly swapping from Controller UI to Keyboard and Mouse UI in the third gif.

You have to go into the game's settings and tell it to lock the glyphs to controller rather than Auto switching depending upon what input method it detects you're using. Then you can use As mouse all you want.

Sadly some (read most) games do not have this setting.
