# attributedTitle

An optional title for the item.

```
@NSCopying var attributedTitle: NSAttributedString? { get set }
```

## Discussion

> Important:
> Alternatively, you can set attributed content in the ``doc://com.apple.foundation/documentation/Foundation/NSExtensionItem/userInfo`` dictionary using the ``doc://com.apple.foundation/documentation/Foundation/NSExtensionItemAttributedTitleKey`` key. However, setting the ``doc://com.apple.foundation/documentation/Foundation/NSExtensionItem/userInfo`` dictionary after setting ``doc://com.apple.foundation/documentation/Foundation/NSExtensionItem/attributedTitle`` overrides this property.
