# elements The input elements of a virtual controller. ``` var elements: Set { get set } ``` ## Discussion The possible values you can include in this array are the names of the following constants: [`GCInputButtonA`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputButtonA-8z15w), [`GCInputButtonB`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputButtonB-6z361), [`GCInputButtonX`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputButtonX-32i2z), [`GCInputButtonY`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputButtonY-9x9i9), [`GCInputDirectionPad`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputDirectionPad-115st), [`GCInputLeftThumbstick`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputLeftThumbstick-3hlff), [`GCInputRightThumbstick`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputRightThumbstick-8469p), [`GCInputLeftShoulder`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputLeftShoulder-9assr), [`GCInputRightShoulder`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputRightShoulder-5lcq1), [`GCInputLeftTrigger`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputLeftTrigger-80png), and [`GCInputRightTrigger`](/documentation/GameController/GCInputRightTrigger-96vtj). > Note: > If you include both `GCInputDirectionPad` and `GCInputLeftThumbstick` in the array, the virtual controller contains only the left thumb stick, not the input direction pad. For example, configure a virtual controller with a left thumb stick, right thumb stick, A button, and B button. ```swift virtualConfiguration.elements = [GCInputLeftThumbstick,GCInputRightThumbstick,GCInputButtonA,GCInputButtonB] ``` --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
