## Discussion

Discussion By default, the type of Scene and its placement within the app’s definition will determine the behavior of its windows within a window management context. You can use this modifier to override the default behaivor. For example, you can specify that a secondary Window scene should use the principal behavior for full screen and Stage Manager: struct MyApp: App {     var body: some Scene {         WindowGroup {             ContentView()         }         Window("Organizer", id: "organizer") {             OrganizerView()         }         .windowManagerRole(.principal)     } }
