# defersCurrentPageDisplay

A Boolean value that controls when the current page is displayed.

```
var defersCurrentPageDisplay: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Set the value of this property to <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true> so that, when the user taps the control to go to a new page, the class defers updating the page control until it calls [`updateCurrentPageDisplay()`](/documentation/UIKit/UIPageControl/updateCurrentPageDisplay()). Set the value to <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false> (the default) to have the page control updated immediately.
