I'm very new and wanna use my dolphin bar on my laptop. I'm not sure I'm doing things right. I've been all over the internet must circle back to around here I haven't tried the bottom code but I'm mostly trying to make this work on retro arc. Idk if they're similar. But I haven't had any success. Thanks for any consideration!
