# focusedValue(_:)

Sets the focused value for the given object type.

```
nonisolated func focusedValue<T>(_ object: T?) -> some View where T : AnyObject, T : Observable
```

## Parameters

`object`

The object to read the focus value for.

## Discussion> Important: This initializer only accepts objects conforming to the
> `Observable` protocol. For reading environment objects that conform to
> `ObservableObject`, use `focusedObject(_:)`, instead.

To read this value, use the `FocusedValue` property wrapper.
