# setRightBarButtonItems(_:animated:)

Sets the right bar button items, optionally animating the transition to the new items.

## Declaration

```swift
func setRightBarButtonItems(_ items: [UIBarButtonItem]?, animated: Bool)
```

## Parameters

- `items`: An array of custom bar button items to display on the right side of the navigation bar.
- `animated`: Specify doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/true to animate the transition to the custom bar items when this item is the top item. Specify doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/false to set the items immediately without animating the change.

## Discussion

Discussion If two navigation items have the same custom left or right bar button items, those bar button items remain stationary during the transition when the navigation item is pushed or popped.
