# statusBarOrientationAnimationDuration

The animation duration in seconds for the status bar during a 90 degree orientation change.

```
var statusBarOrientationAnimationDuration: TimeInterval { get }
```

## Discussion

You should double the value of this property for a 180 degree orientation change in the status bar.

## See Also
