# PKStrokeRenderStateReference

An object that captures the render-time state of a stroke, such as grain texture position.

## Declaration

```swift
class PKStrokeRenderStateReference
```

## Overview

Overview PKStrokeRenderState is the Objective-C representation of a stroke’s rendering context. It conforms to NSCopying and NSSecureCoding for archiving. In Swift, use the equivalent value type PKStroke.RenderState instead.

## Topics

### Getting the render state

- [grainOffset](pencilkit/pkstrokerenderstatereference/grainoffset.md)

### Using Swift types

- [PKStroke.RenderState](pencilkit/pkstroke-swift.struct/renderstate-swift.struct.md)

### Initializers
