# LiveActivityPresentationPhase

Where the host is in mounting a compact surface (DroppyKit 1.23.0).

`enum LiveActivityPresentationPhase`

Available from DroppyKit 1.23.0.

The host owns every entrance and exit. While it is `entering` or `leaving` your view is part of Droppy's own motion, and anything you animate on top of it plays twice; hold still until `steady`.

## Cases

### LiveActivityPresentationPhase.entering

`case entering`

The host is revealing the surface, or a shelf spring is moving the notch around it.

### LiveActivityPresentationPhase.steady

`case steady`

The surface is up and at rest. The only phase in which your own animation and ticking should run.

### LiveActivityPresentationPhase.leaving

`case leaving`

The host is taking the surface away.
