# minSize

The minimum size to which the window’s frame (including its title bar) can be sized.

## Declaration

```swift
var minSize: NSSize { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The minimum size constraint is enforced for resizing by the user as well as for the setFrame... methods other than setFrame(_:display:) and setFrame(_:display:animate:). The NSWindow method takes precedence over this property.
