# offset

The time, in seconds, at which the animation begins within the duration.

## Declaration

```swift
var offset: TimeInterval { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The default value is 0, which indicates that the animation plays with no offset. If you set a value for this property, the animation plays immediately, beginning at the specified time.
