Help with 8-direction movement animation

I?m trying to figure out how to make my character animations work properly when walking in the diagonal directions. up,down,left and right works fine but when I press for example up+left it doesn?t animate. Have tried events with dual conditions and also experimented with subevents but nothing seems to work. Have searched the forum with no luck.

Oh sorry I didn't link the right capx

You can pretty much settle this in one event

I have three because I separate collision from animation sprite and I also have idle anim the one you would use is the second one.

Yann that's brilliant. I've been looking for a way to do it more efficiently than having separate event for each angle. Thank you so much!

I've been trying to do something like this for days, but with a gamepad. Is this impossible?
