# representedURL

The URL of the file the window represents.

## Declaration

```swift
var representedURL: URL? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion When the URL specifies a path, the window shows an icon in its title bar, as described in the following table:  |   |   |   |  You can customize the file icon in the title bar with the following code: [[<window> standardWindowButton:NSWindowDocumentIconButton] setImage:<image>] When the URL identifies an existing file, the window’s title offers a pop-up menu showing the path components of the URL. (The user displays this menu by Command-clicking the title.) The behavior and contents of this menu can be controlled with window(_:shouldPopUpDocumentPathMenu:).
