# NSPressureConfiguration

An encapsulation of the behavior and progression of a Force Touch trackpad as it responds to specific events.

```
class NSPressureConfiguration
```

## Overview

Use an [`NSPressureConfiguration`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPressureConfiguration) object to configure the behavior and progression of a Force Touch trackpad when it responds to a mouse drag or pressure event sequence. Pressure configurations are assigned to views ([`NSView`](/documentation/AppKit/NSView)) and gesture recognizers ([`NSGestureRecognizer`](/documentation/AppKit/NSGestureRecognizer)).

## Topics

### Creating a Pressure Configuration Object

[`init(pressureBehavior:)`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPressureConfiguration/init(pressureBehavior:))

Initializes a pressure configuration object with a specified pressure behavior.

[`set()`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPressureConfiguration/set())

Changes the pressure configuration of the trackpad to the initialized pressure configuration.

### Accessing Pressure Configuration Object Properties

[`pressureBehavior`](/documentation/AppKit/NSPressureConfiguration/pressureBehavior)

The pressure behavior of the pressure configuration object.
