## Summary

D-Pad Menu is a gaming-controller-inspired radial navigation component featuring GSAP spring physics, a draggable analog-stick knob, and directional item highlighting.

## Description

D-Pad Menu is a gaming-controller-inspired radial navigation component featuring GSAP spring physics, a draggable analog-stick knob, and directional item highlighting. Perfect for creating immersive, interactive navigation in Framer.

### **Key architectural highlights:**

-   **GSAP Spring Physics:** Leverages GSAP's elastic easing for buttery-smooth item reveals and a satisfying snap-back when the knob is released.
    
-   **Analog Stick Mechanics:** Features a draggable center knob that calculates real-time drag angles to directionally highlight and select radially positioned menu items.
    
-   **Radial Item Positioning:** Uses trigonometric calculations to dynamically distribute menu items in a perfect circle around the knob, adapting to any item count.
    
-   **Audio Integration:** Built-in sound triggers for open, close, tick, and select actions, adding a tactile auditory layer to every interaction.
    

### **Set up:**

1.  Drag the **D-Pad Menu** component into your Canvas.
    
2.  Toggle **Editor Mode** to keep the menu expanded while you configure its properties.
    
3.  Configure your **Menu Items**, adding labels, links, and selecting built-in or custom icons.
    
4.  Choose a **Position** for the floating trigger (e.g., Bottom Right).
    
5.  Upload your **Sound Effects** to enable immersive audio feedback (optional).
    
6.  Tweak the **Knob Color**, **Ring Color**, and **Item Background** to match your brand.
    
7.  Turn off **Editor Mode** and preview the drag interaction and spring animations!
