# sendAction()

A Boolean value that indicates whether a responder handled the font manager’s action message.

```
func sendAction() -> Bool
```

## Discussion

By default, the font manager’s action message is <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/ObjectiveC/NSObject-swift.class/changeFont:>. The value of this property is <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true> if some responder object handled the <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/ObjectiveC/NSObject-swift.class/changeFont:> message or <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false> if the message went unheard.
