I tried to update my current game controller code to the new iOS 17.0 GCControllerLiveInput. But the Touchpads of the PS4 and PS5 controllers are not listed as elements of the GCControllerLiveInput.

Were they moved somewhere else? They are not listed as a GCMouse, and I didn't find anything about this in the documentation or header files either...

The PlayStation controller specific features (touchpad, adaptive triggers) are not currently exposed through the GCControllerLiveInput collection of APIs at this time. Continue to use GCPhysicalInputProfile to access the touchpad input on DualSense and DualShock gamepads.
