How do I modify the onscreen gamepad appearance?

Just started using RetroArch on Android so I could replay the NES Legend of Zelda game that I love.

I’ve loaded the NES controller config successfully but I’ve found the onscreen D-pad pretty difficult to use in many cases. Is it possible to modify the onscreen controller configuration? Here’s how I would like to change it:

  • Make the D-pad larger in size
  • Increase transparency
  • Don’t make buttons opaque when pressed
  • Increase the D-pad dead zone in the middle if the increased size does not do this

I’m brand new, so please assume I’m coming from basically zero knowledge. I searched the forums for a similar question but couldn’t find precisely this.

Thank you!
