# isBordered

A Boolean value indicating whether the cell draws itself outlined with a plain border.

## Declaration

```swift
var isBordered: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The value of this property is true if the cell has a plain border or false if it does not. This property is mutually exclusive with the isBezeled property—that is, a cell’s border can be plain or bezeled but not both. Changing the value of this property automatically removes any bezel that has been set, regardless of the value you assign to the property.
