# showsAddButtonWhenEditing

A Boolean value that indicates whether an Add (+) button is displayed while the list is in editing mode.

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

## Discussion

If users click the Add (+) button while in editing mode, the button’s action send the [`widgetListPerformAddAction(_:)`](/documentation/NotificationCenter/NCWidgetListViewDelegate/widgetListPerformAddAction(_:)) message to the [`delegate`](/documentation/NotificationCenter/NCWidgetListViewController/delegate).
