# retargetedPreview(with:)

Returns a new targeted drag item preview based on an existing one, but with a new geometric target.

```
func retargetedPreview(with newTarget: UIDragPreviewTarget) -> UITargetedDragPreview
```

## Parameters

`newTarget`

A new drag item preview target.

## Return Value

A new targeted drag preview.

## Discussion

You can use this method in the drop interaction delegate’s implementation of the [`dropInteraction(_:previewForDropping:withDefault:)`](/documentation/UIKit/UIDropInteractionDelegate/dropInteraction(_:previewForDropping:withDefault:)) method to replace the current targeted drag item preview with a different one.
