# viewDidChangeBackingProperties()

Responds when the view’s backing store properties change.

```
func viewDidChangeBackingProperties()
```

## Discussion

The view gets this message when the backing store scale or color space changes. Provide an implementation if you need to swap assets or make other adjustments when a view’s backing store properties change.
