# destructive

An option indicating the menu’s appearance represents a destructive action.

```
static var destructive: UIMenu.Options { get }
```

## Discussion

Apply this option when you need a menu for a destructive action. Use the menu’s title to communicate the action to perform, and use the menu’s child menu elements to ask for user confirmation of that action.
