Quick addendum … did some brief research and found work around. The Tab key exits most menus or moves focus back one level. So by mapping the TAB key to a KEY right next to the key I mapped the Favorites lets me open close easily enough e.g. map to [ and ].

Also found that if I disabled the gamepad support the mouse worked better in most menus.

While it would be nice to have it more PC friendly I was able to work around it with just a little research and practice.

Now to get some actual content experience to report on.
