# offset(_:)

Offset this view by the horizontal and vertical amount specified in the
offset parameter.

```
nonisolated func offset(_ offset: CGSize) -> some View
```

## Parameters

`offset`

The distance to offset this view.

## Return Value

A view that offsets this view by `offset`.

## Discussion

Use `offset(_:)` to shift the displayed contents by the amount
specified in the `offset` parameter.

The original dimensions of the view aren’t changed by offsetting the
contents; in the example below the gray border drawn by this view
surrounds the original position of the text:

```
Text("Offset by passing CGSize()")
    .border(Color.green)
    .offset(CGSize(width: 20, height: 25))
    .border(Color.gray)
```
