# setStateFrom(_:)

Copies the input values from a specified extended gamepad to a snapshot of an extended gamepad.

## Declaration

```swift
func setStateFrom(_ extendedGamepad: GCExtendedGamepad)
```

## Parameters

- `extendedGamepad`: The extended gamepad to copy the input values from.

## Discussion

Discussion If this extended gamepad isn’t a snapshot, this method does nothing. A snapshot is a copy of a controller at a moment in time that has element values you can set.
