# edges

The acceptable starting edges for the gesture.

## Declaration

```swift
var edges: UIRectEdge { get set }
```

## Mentioned in

Handling pan gestures

## Discussion

Discussion The edges you specify are always relative to the app’s current interface orientation. This behavior ensures that the gestures always occur from the same place in your user interface, regardless of the device’s current orientation.
