# WindowDragGesture

A gesture that recognizes the motion of and handles dragging a window.

## Declaration

```swift
nonisolated struct WindowDragGesture
```

## Overview

Overview To recognize a window drag gesture on a view, create and configure the gesture, and then add it to the view using the gesture(_:isEnabled:) modifier. Consider also letting the gesture allowsWindowActivationEvents(_:) so that dragging the containing window works even when it’s inactive. To add a window drag gesture to a Circle and change its color while a user performs the window drag gesture: struct MyView: View {     @GestureState var isDraggingWindow = false

var dragWindow: some Gesture {         WindowDragGesture()             .updating($isDraggingWindow) { _, state, _ in                 state = true             }     }

var body: some View {         Circle()             .fill(isDraggingWindow ? Color.green : .blue)             .frame(width: 50, height: 50)             .gesture(dragWindow)             .allowsWindowActivationEvents()     } }
