# SDL_SetJoystickVirtualTouchpad

Set touchpad finger state on an opened virtual joystick.

## Header File

Defined in [<SDL3/SDL_joystick.h>](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/blob/main/include/SDL3/SDL_joystick.h)

## Syntax

```c
SDL_bool SDL_SetJoystickVirtualTouchpad(SDL_Joystick *joystick, int touchpad, int finger, SDL_bool down, float x, float y, float pressure);
```

## Function Parameters

|                                |              |                                                                                                       |
| ------------------------------ | ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| [SDL_Joystick](SDL_Joystick) * | **joystick** | the virtual joystick on which to set state.                                                           |
| int                            | **touchpad** | the index of the touchpad on the virtual joystick to update.                                          |
| int                            | **finger**   | the index of the finger on the touchpad to set.                                                       |
| [SDL_bool](SDL_bool)           | **down**     | [SDL_TRUE](SDL_TRUE) if the finger is pressed, [SDL_FALSE](SDL_FALSE) if the finger is released.      |
| float                          | **x**        | the x coordinate of the finger on the touchpad, normalized 0 to 1, with the origin in the upper left. |
| float                          | **y**        | the y coordinate of the finger on the touchpad, normalized 0 to 1, with the origin in the upper left. |
| float                          | **pressure** | the pressure of the finger.                                                                           |

## Return Value

([SDL_bool](SDL_bool)) Returns [SDL_TRUE](SDL_TRUE) on success or
[SDL_FALSE](SDL_FALSE) on failure; call [SDL_GetError](SDL_GetError)() for
more information.

## Remarks

Please note that values set here will not be applied until the next call to
[SDL_UpdateJoysticks](SDL_UpdateJoysticks), which can either be called
directly, or can be called indirectly through various other SDL APIs,
including, but not limited to the following:
[SDL_PollEvent](SDL_PollEvent), [SDL_PumpEvents](SDL_PumpEvents),
[SDL_WaitEventTimeout](SDL_WaitEventTimeout),
[SDL_WaitEvent](SDL_WaitEvent).

## Version

This function is available since SDL 3.0.0.
