# currentItem

The current item that determines where the search starts.

## Declaration

```swift
var currentItem: NSAccessibilityCustomRotor.ItemResult? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion If this value is nil, searchDirection determines the current item. A search direction of NSAccessibilityCustomRotor.SearchDirection.next begins the search from the first item, and a search direction of NSAccessibilityCustomRotor.SearchDirection.previous begins the search from the last item.
