# applicationShouldSuppressHighDynamicRangeContent

A boolean value indicating whether your application should suppress HDR content based on established policy. Built-in AppKit components such as NSImageView will automatically behave correctly with HDR content. You should use this value in conjunction with notifications (NSApplicationShouldBeginSuppressingHighDynamicRangeContentNotification and NSApplicationShouldEndSuppressingHighDynamicRangeContentNotification) to suppress HDR content in your application when signaled to do so.

## Declaration

```swift
var applicationShouldSuppressHighDynamicRangeContent: Bool { get }
```
