# wantsInteractiveStart

A Boolean value indicating whether the transition is interactive when it starts.

## Declaration

```swift
optional var wantsInteractiveStart: Bool { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The value of this property is true when the transition is interactive from the moment it starts. The property is false when the transition starts off as noninteractive. However, even a transition that starts off as noninteractive may become interactive later if it implements the interruptibleAnimator(using:) method of the UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning protocol.
