# perspectiveRotationEffect(_:axis:anchor:perspective:)

Renders content as if it’s rotated in three dimensions around the specified axis.

## Declaration

```swift
func perspectiveRotationEffect(_ angle: Angle, axis: (x: CGFloat, y: CGFloat, z: CGFloat), anchor: UnitPoint3D = .back, perspective: CGFloat = 1) -> some VisualEffect

```

## Parameters

- `angle`: The angle by which to rotate the content.
- `axis`: The axis of rotation, specified as a tuple with named elements for each of the three spatial dimensions.
- `anchor`: A unit point within the content about which to perform the rotation. The default value is doc://com.apple.SwiftUI/documentation/SwiftUI/UnitPoint3D/center.
- `perspective`: The relative vanishing point for the rotation. The default is 1.

## Return Value

Return Value A rotation effect.

## Discussion

Discussion Use this method to create the effect of rotating content in three dimensions around a specified axis of rotation. The modifier projects two dimensional content onto the original content’s plane. Use the perspective input to control the renderer’s vanishing point. The following example creates the appearance of rotating text 45˚ about the y-axis: Text("Rotation by passing an angle in degrees")     .visualEffect { content, geometryProxy in         content             .perspectiveRotationEffect(                 .degrees(45),                 axis: (x: 0.0, y: 1.0, z: 0.0),                 anchor: .center,                 perspective: 1)         }     .border(Color.gray)

important: To truly rotate content in three dimensions, use a 3D rotation effect without a perspective input like rotation3DEffect(_:axis:anchor:).
