# Create

A static factory method that allocates and initializes a video direction control.

```
static OSSharedPtr<IOUserVideoDirectionControl> Create(IOUserVideoDriver *in_driver, bool in_is_settable, bool in_control_value, IOUserVideoObjectPropertyElement in_control_element, IOUserVideoObjectPropertyScope in_control_scope, IOUserVideoClassID in_control_class_id);
```

## Parameters

`in_driver`

The IOUserVideoDriver that owns this object.

`in_is_settable`

A Boolean value indicating if the control value can be set

`in_control_value`

A bool for the control’s current value

`in_control_element`

The IOUserVideoObjectPropertyElement for the control

`in_control_scope`

The IOUserVideoObjectPropertyScope for the control

`in_control_class_id`

The IOUserVideoClassID of the control

## Return Value

OSSharedPtr to an IOUserVideoDirectionControl if it was successfully allocated and initialized

## Discussion

If IOUserVideoDirectionControl is subclassed to override behavior, don’t use this method
to allocate or initialize the custom subclass.
