Updating this value immediately updates the control in the touch bar. #### `touchBarSegmentedControl.segments` A `SegmentedControlSegment[]` array representing the segments in this control. Updating this value immediately updates the control in the touch bar. Updating deep properties inside this array **does not update the touch bar**. #### `touchBarSegmentedControl.selectedIndex` An `Integer` representing the currently selected segment. Changing this value immediately updates the control in the touch bar. User interaction with the touch bar will update this value automatically.
