# init(focusedViewRect:)

Initializes a newly allocated bitmap image representation with bitmap data from a rendered image.

## Declaration

```swift
init?(focusedViewRect rect: NSRect)
```

## Parameters

- `rect`: A rectangle that specifies an area of the current window in the current coordinate system.

## Return Value

Return Value Returns the initialized object or nil If for any reason the new object can’t be initialized.

## Discussion

Discussion This method uses imaging operators to read the image data into a buffer; the object is then created from that data. The object is initialized with information about the image obtained from the window server.
