# placement

The placement you prefer when the system activates the window scene.

```
@MainActor @preconcurrency var placement: (any UIWindowScenePlacement)? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Provide a scene placement to influence how the system positions the scene on activation. Set the value to `nil` to indicate that the system should determine the most appropriate placement.
