# HoverEffectContent A type that describes the effects of a view for a particular hover effect phase. ``` protocol HoverEffectContent ``` ## Overview ``` Color.red .hoverEffect { effect, isActive, proxy in effect.opacity(isActive ? 1 : 0.5) } ``` You don’t conform to this protocol yourself. Instead, effects are described by calling modifier functions on other effects, like the `opacity(_:)` modifier used in the example above. ## Topics ### Instance Methods [`func animation(Animation?, body: (EmptyHoverEffectContent) -> some HoverEffectContent) -> some HoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/animation(_:body:)) Applies the given [`Animation`](/documentation/SwiftUI/Animation) to all effects within the `body` closure. [`func clipShape(S, style: FillStyle) -> some HoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/clipShape(_:style:)) Sets a clipping shape for the view. [`func offset(CGSize) -> some HoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/offset(_:)) Offsets the view by the horizontal and vertical amount specified in the offset parameter. [`func offset(x: CGFloat, y: CGFloat) -> some HoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/offset(x:y:)) Offsets the view by the specified horizontal and vertical distances. [`func opacity(Double) -> some HoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/opacity(_:)) Sets the transparency of the view. [`func rotationEffect(Angle, anchor: UnitPoint) -> some HoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/rotationEffect(_:anchor:)) Rotates content in two dimensions around the specified point. [`func scaleEffect(_:anchor:)`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/scaleEffect(_:anchor:)) Scales the view’s rendered output by the given amount in both the horizontal and vertical directions, relative to an anchor point. [`func scaleEffect(x: CGFloat, y: CGFloat, anchor: UnitPoint) -> some HoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/scaleEffect(x:y:anchor:)) Scales the view’s rendered output by the given horizontal and vertical amounts, relative to an anchor point. [`func transformEffect(CGAffineTransform) -> some HoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/HoverEffectContent/transformEffect(_:)) Applies an affine transformation to the view’s rendered output. ## Relationships ### Conforming Types [`EmptyHoverEffectContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/EmptyHoverEffectContent) [`ModifiedContent`](/documentation/SwiftUI/ModifiedContent) --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
