# NavigationSplitViewColumn

A view that represents a column in a navigation split view.

```
struct NavigationSplitViewColumn
```

## Overview

A [`NavigationSplitView`](/documentation/SwiftUI/NavigationSplitView) collapses into a single stack in some contexts,
like on iPhone or Apple Watch. Use this type with the
`preferredCompactColumn` parameter to control which column of the navigation
split view appears on top of the collapsed stack.
