nonisolated func previewInterfaceOrientation(_ value: InterfaceOrientation) -> some View

```

## Discussion

Discussion By default, device previews appear right side up, using orientation portrait. You can change the orientation of a preview using one of the values in the InterfaceOrientation structure: struct CircleImage_Previews: PreviewProvider {     static var previews: some View {         CircleImage()             .previewInterfaceOrientation(.landscapeRight)     } }
