Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Instead of using a regular button for representing triggers, it would be nice to add to it some kind of indicator showing current value of axis.

Maybe the background of a button could serve as a progress bar.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing button widgets in the codebase, particularly how they handle gamepad input. Look at the library used for reading gamepad state and find where trigger axis values are available. Then create a new widget that subclasses a button and adds a progress bar overlay or background to indicate the current axis value. Integrate it in the main window where triggers are listed.
