# UIDocumentProperties

Information that UIKit uses to generate a document header for a navigation item’s title menu.

## Declaration

```swift
@MainActor class UIDocumentProperties
```

## Overview

Overview Assign a UIDocumentProperties object to your navigation item’s documentProperties property. UIKit uses this object to display a document header at the top of the title menu, which appears when a person taps the navigation item’s title. The document header displays information about the current document, such as its title, file type, and size.

Additionally, you can configure a set of sharing capabilities that allow people to share or drag and drop the document content from the document header: Set an activityViewControllerProvider to show the Share button. Set a dragItemsProvider to allow people to drag and drop the document by dragging the preview icon. note: Session 10069: Meet desktop-class iPad Session 10070: Build a desktop-class iPad app
