# exitFullScreenMode(options:)

Instructs the view to exit full screen mode.

```
func exitFullScreenMode(options: [NSView.FullScreenModeOptionKey : Any]? = nil)
```

## Parameters

`options`

A dictionary of options for the mode. For possible keys, see `Full Screen Mode Options`.

## Discussion

When the [`fullScreenModeApplicationPresentationOptions`](/documentation/AppKit/NSView/FullScreenModeOptionKey/fullScreenModeApplicationPresentationOptions) options is specified when [`enterFullScreenMode(_:withOptions:)`](/documentation/AppKit/NSView/enterFullScreenMode(_:withOptions:)) is invoked, exiting full screen mode will restore the previously active [`presentationOptions`](/documentation/AppKit/NSApplication/presentationOptions-swift.property).
