Struct InputBinding

A mapping of control input to an action.

Inherited Members
System.Object.Equals(System.Object, System.Object)
System.Object.ReferenceEquals(System.Object, System.Object)
System.Object.GetType()
Namespace: UnityEngine.Experimental.Input
Syntax
public struct InputBinding : IEquatable<InputBinding>
Remarks

A single binding can match arbitrary many controls through its path and then map their input to a single action.

A binding can also be used as a override specification. In that scenario, path, action, and groups become search criteria that can be used to find existing bindings, and overridePath becomes the path to override existing binding paths with.

Finally, a binding can be used as a form of specifying a mask that matching bindings must comply to. For example, a binding that has only groups set to "Gamepad" and all other fields set to default can be used to mask for bindings in the "Gamepad" group.

Fields

kSeparator

Declaration
public const char kSeparator = ';'
Field Value
Type Description
System.Char

kSeparatorString

Declaration
public const string kSeparatorString = ";"
Field Value
Type Description
System.String

Properties

action

Name of the action triggered by the binding.

Declaration
public string action { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String
Remarks

This is null if the binding does not trigger an action.

For InputBindings that are used as filters, this can be a "mapName/actionName" combination or "mapName/*" to match all actions in the given map.

chainWithPrevious

Declaration
public bool chainWithPrevious { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Boolean

groups

Declaration
public string groups { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String

interactions

Optional list of interactions and their parameters.

Declaration
public string interactions { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String
Examples
"tap,slowTap(duration=1.2)"

isComposite

Declaration
public bool isComposite { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Boolean

isPartOfComposite

Declaration
public bool isPartOfComposite { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Boolean

name

Optional name for the binding.

Declaration
public string name { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String
Remarks

For bindings that isPartOfComposite, this is the name of the field on the binding composite object that should be initialized with the control target of the binding.

overrideInteractions

Declaration
public string overrideInteractions { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String

overridePath

If the binding is overridden, this is the overriding path. Otherwise it is null.

Declaration
public string overridePath { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String
Remarks

Not serialized as overrides are considered temporary, runtime-only state.

overrideProcessors

Declaration
public string overrideProcessors { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String

path

Control path being bound to.

Declaration
public string path { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String
Remarks

If the binding is a composite (isComposite), the path is the composite string instead.

Examples
"/*/{PrimaryAction}"

processors

Optional list of processors to apply to control values.

Declaration
public string processors { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.String
Remarks

This list has the same format as .
