In direct law surface movement is proportional to SS movement. Let's say you hit the stick to one side you get full aileron and full spoilers deflected and what ever rate of roll results depends on air speed. In normal law rate of roll is proportional to SS movement, full SS to one side is 15 degrees rate of roll independent of speed. Same is about pitch. In direct law you pull the stick back you produce a load factor that depends on speed. In normal law Load factor is proportional to SS movement irrespective of speed.
On ground SS orders are not modified by ELAC and SEC. On ground Full one side is full aileron and spoilers up and other side aileron full down.
