# view

The view from which the preview interaction receives touch events.

## Declaration

```swift
weak var view: UIView? { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion A preview interaction operates on the view that’s provided at initialization time. Use this property to obtain a reference to that same view. Note that this is a weak property — the preview interaction doesn’t retain a reference to the view it’s provided.
