# visibilityPriority

The display priority associated with the toolbar item.

## Declaration

```swift
var visibilityPriority: NSToolbarItem.VisibilityPriority { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The default value of this property is standard. Assign a higher priority to give preference to the toolbar item when space is limited. When a toolbar doesn’t have enough space to fit all of its items, it pushes lower-priority items to the overflow menu first. When two or more items have the same priority, the toolbar removes them one at a time starting from the trailing edge.
