# kAudioFormatProperty_BitmapForLayoutTag

A bitmap for an AudioChannelLayoutTag value.

## Declaration

```swift
var kAudioFormatProperty_BitmapForLayoutTag: AudioFormatPropertyID { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion A bitmap for an AudioChannelLayoutTag value, if there is one. Set the inSpecifier parameter to an AudioChannelLayoutTag value containing the layout tag. The value is an UInt32 bitmap. The bits are as defined in Core Audio Data Types. To go in the other direction, that is, to get a layout tag for a bitmap, use the kAudioFormatProperty_TagForChannelLayout where your layout tag is kAudioChannelLayoutTag_UseChannelBitmap and the bitmap is filled in.
