# color

The color object of the first pasteboard item.

## Declaration

```swift
@NSCopying var color: UIColor? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The value stored in this property is a UIColor object. The associated array of representation types is typeListColor. Setting this property replaces all current items in the pasteboard with the new item. If the first item has no value of the indicated type, nil is returned. note: Do not use this property to determine if a pasteboard contains color data. Instead, use the hasColors property.
