# preferredPresentationStyle

The presentation style of the window scene.

```
var preferredPresentationStyle: UIWindowScene.PresentationStyle { get set }
```

## Discussion

The presentation style determines how the system displays the new window scene relative to other scenes in the workspace. The default style is [`UIWindowScene.PresentationStyle.automatic`](/documentation/UIKit/UIWindowScene/PresentationStyle/automatic).
