# frameDescriptor

A string representation of the window’s frame rectangle.

```
var frameDescriptor: NSWindow.PersistableFrameDescriptor { get }
```

## Discussion

The value of this property is a string that can be used in a later call to [`setFrame(from:)`](/documentation/AppKit/NSWindow/setFrame(from:)).
