# separatorInsetReference

An indicator of how to interpret the separator inset value.

```
var separatorInsetReference: UITableView.SeparatorInsetReference { get set }
```

## Discussion

Use the value of this property to determine how the value in the separatorInset property is interpreted for cells. The default value of this property is [`UITableView.SeparatorInsetReference.fromCellEdges`](/documentation/UIKit/UITableView/SeparatorInsetReference-swift.enum/fromCellEdges).
