# interactiveContentPopGestureRecognizer

The gesture recognizer that handles interactively popping the top view controller off the navigation stack
when a person pans horizontally in the view.

```
var interactiveContentPopGestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer? { get }
```

## Discussion

The navigation controller installs this gesture recognizer on its view and uses it to interactively pop the
topmost view controller off the navigation stack when a person initially pans horizontally in a leading to
trailing direction in the view. It recognizes a gesture on the entire content area of the navigation controller
in cases that are not covered by [`interactivePopGestureRecognizer`](/documentation/UIKit/UINavigationController/interactivePopGestureRecognizer)
and initiates an interactive pop.

Use this property to retrieve the gesture recognizer and tie it to the behavior of other gesture recognizers
in your user interface.
