# ffAxes

An array of values that describe the axes on which force-feedback is present.

```
var ffAxes: (UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8, UInt8)
```

## Discussion

The number of valid elements in the array is specified in numFfAxes. Each element of the array can contain one of the following values:

FFJOFS_X:

The X-axis is force-feedback-actuated.

FFJOFS_Y:

The Y-axis is force-feedback-actuated.

FFJOFS_Z:

The Z-axis is force-feedback-actuated.

For devices of subType FFCAP_ST_VIBRATION, it is recommended that the numFfAxes = 1, and that ffAxes[0] = FFJOFS_X.
