# usesFeedbackWindow

Indicates whether the receiver uses the speech feedback window.

```
var usesFeedbackWindow: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

<doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true> when the receiver uses the speech feedback window, <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false> otherwise.

See the class description for details on the `UsesFeedbackWindow` attribute.

> Important:
> The delegate only receives the ``doc://com.apple.appkit/documentation/AppKit/NSSpeechSynthesizerDelegate/speechSynthesizer(_:didFinishSpeaking:)`` message when speaking occurs through the feedback window.
