SDL_HINT_VITA_TOUCH_MOUSE_DEVICE(3)

💖 NAME 💖

SDL_HINT_VITA_TOUCH_MOUSE_DEVICE — bestie, this is the lil variable that decides which touchpad on your PS Vita gets to pretend it's a mouse ✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <SDL3/SDL_hints.h>

#define SDL_HINT_VITA_TOUCH_MOUSE_DEVICE "SDL_VITA_TOUCH_MOUSE_DEVICE"

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so. You know how the Vita has a front touchpad AND a back touchpad? And you know how sometimes you want touch input to just… become mouse events? Yeah. This hint is the girlboss in charge of that 💅

You can set the variable to these values, no cap:

• "0" — only the front touchpad generates mouse events. This is the default, so if you say nothing, this is the vibe you get 🫶
• "1" — only the back touchpad generates mouse events.
• "2" — both touchpads generate mouse events. Iconic. Chaotic. Both.

This hint can be set anytime — not me being flexible or whatever 😌

---

⭐ AVAILABILITY ⭐

This hint is available since SDL 3.2.0. So if you're on something older, it's giving nothing, sorry bestie 😭
