# titleRect(forBounds:)

Returns the rectangle in which the receiver draws its title text.

## Declaration

```swift
func titleRect(forBounds rect: NSRect) -> NSRect
```

## Parameters

- `rect`: The bounding rectangle of the receiver.

## Return Value

Return Value The rectangle in which the receiver draws its title text.

## Discussion

Discussion If the receiver is a text-type cell, this method resizes the drawing rectangle for the title (theRect) inward by a small offset to accommodate the cell border. If the receiver is not a text-type cell, the method does nothing.
