# interaction(_:shouldBeginAt:for:)

Provides a Boolean value that indicates whether the interaction can begin at the given point.

```
@MainActor func interaction(_ interaction: ImageAnalysisInteraction, shouldBeginAt point: CGPoint, for interactionType: ImageAnalysisInteraction.InteractionTypes) -> Bool
```

## Parameters

`interaction`

The object for which interaction can begin.

`point`

The point where the interaction can begin.

`interactionType`

The type of interaction that can begin.

## Return Value

`true` if the interaction can begin; otherwise, `false`.

## Discussion

The system calls this method once for each type of interaction. The default value is `true`, which starts the interaction immediately after the image displays.
