# GameInputGamepadAxes

> GameInputGamepadAxes

Enumerates gamepad axes. These values represent axes commonly found on gamepad peripherals. Unlike buttons, which can also represent state, these only represent an axis element on the gamepad.

## Syntax

```cpp theme={null}
enum GameInputGamepadAxes
{
    GameInputGamepadAxesNone         = 0x00000000,
    GameInputGamepadLeftTrigger      = 0x00000001,
    GameInputGamepadRightTrigger     = 0x00000002,
    GameInputGamepadLeftThumbstickX  = 0x00000004,
    GameInputGamepadLeftThumbstickY  = 0x00000008,
    GameInputGamepadRightThumbstickX = 0x00000010,
    GameInputGamepadRightThumbstickY = 0x00000020,
};
```
