# isEquivalentToPresentationIntent:

Returns a Boolean value that indicates whether the current intent is equivalent to the specified intent.

```
- (BOOL) isEquivalentToPresentationIntent:(NSPresentationIntent *) other;
```

## Parameters

`other`

The other intent to use in the comparison.

## Return Value

<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true> if the current intent is equivalent to the specified intent, or <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false> if it isn’t.

## Discussion

Two intents are equivalent if their attributes match. This method doesn’t consider the [`identity`](/documentation/Foundation/NSPresentationIntent/identity) property of the intents when determining their equivalence.
