# arrangedSubviews

The list of views arranged by the stack view.

```
var arrangedSubviews: [UIView] { get }
```

## Discussion

The stack view ensures that the [`arrangedSubviews`](/documentation/UIKit/UIStackView/arrangedSubviews) array is always a subset of its [`subviews`](/documentation/UIKit/UIView/subviews) array. Therefore, whenever the [`addArrangedSubview(_:)`](/documentation/UIKit/UIStackView/addArrangedSubview(_:)) method is called, the stack view adds the view as a subview, if it isn’t already. Whenever an arranged view’s [`removeFromSuperview()`](/documentation/UIKit/UIView/removeFromSuperview()) method is called, the stack view removes the view from its [`arrangedSubviews`](/documentation/UIKit/UIStackView/arrangedSubviews) array.

## See Also

[`-  removeFromSuperview`](/documentation/UIKit/UIView/removeFromSuperview())

Unlinks the view from its superview and its window, and removes it from the responder chain.

[`-  initWithArrangedSubviews:`](/documentation/UIKit/UIStackView/init(arrangedSubviews:))

Returns a new stack view object that manages the provided views.
