# offset(x:y:)

Changes the relative position of this shape using the specified point.

## Declaration

```swift
nonisolated func offset(x: CGFloat = 0, y: CGFloat = 0) -> OffsetShape<Self>
```

## Parameters

- `x`: The horizontal amount, in points, by which you offset the shape. Negative numbers are to the left and positive numbers are to the right.
- `y`: The vertical amount, in points, by which you offset the shape. Negative numbers are up and positive numbers are down.

## Return Value

Return Value A shape offset by the specified amount.

## Discussion

Discussion The following example renders two circles. It places one circle at its default position. The second circle is outlined with a stroke, positioned on top of the first circle and offset by 100 points to the left and 50 points below. Circle() .overlay(     Circle()     .offset(x: -100, y: 50)     .stroke() )
