# autorecalculatesKeyViewLoop

A Boolean value that indicates whether the window automatically recalculates the key view loop when views are added.

## Declaration

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

## Discussion

Discussion The value of this property is true if the window automatically recalculates the key view loop when views are added; otherwise, false. If autorecalculatesKeyViewLoop is false, the client code must update the key view loop manually or call recalculateKeyViewLoop() to have the window recalculate it.
