NAME¶

SDL_RumbleGamepadTriggers - Start a rumble effect in the gamepad's triggers.

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <SDL3/SDL_gamepad.h>

bool SDL_RumbleGamepadTriggers(SDL_Gamepad *gamepad, Uint16 left_rumble, Uint16 right_rumble, Uint32 duration_ms);

DESCRIPTION¶

Each call to this function cancels any previous trigger rumble effect, and calling it with 0 intensity stops any rumbling.

Note that this is rumbling of the _triggers_ and not the gamepad as a whole. This is currently only supported on Xbox One gamepads. If you want the (more common) whole-gamepad rumble, use SDL_RumbleGamepad() instead.

This function requires you to process SDL events or call SDL_UpdateJoysticks() to update rumble state.

FUNCTION PARAMETERS¶

gamepad

the gamepad to vibrate.

left_rumble

the intensity of the left trigger rumble motor, from 0 to 0xFFFF.

right_rumble

the intensity of the right trigger rumble motor, from 0 to 0xFFFF.

duration_ms

the duration of the rumble effect, in milliseconds.

RETURN VALUE¶

Returns true on success or false on failure; call SDL_GetError() for more information.

THREAD SAFETY¶

It is safe to call this function from any thread.

AVAILABILITY¶

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
