# Swizzle
Menu Path : **Operator > Math > Vector**
The **Swizzle** [uniform Operator](Operators.md#uniform-operators) rearranges the input vectors components and outputs them into an output vector, based on a swizzle **Mask** string.
For example, a vector of (x,y,z,w) can swizzle to (y,x,x,z).
## Operator settings
| **Setting** | **Type** | **Description** |
| ----------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Mask** | string | The swizzle mask. This is a combination of one to four characters that can be x, y, z, or w. |
## Operator properties
| **Input** | **Type** | **Description** |
| --------- | --------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| **X** | [Configurable](#operator-configuration) | The vector to swizzle the values of. |
| **Output** | **Type** | **Description** |
| ---------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Output** | Dependent | The swizzled output vector (dependant on the Mask setting).<br/>The **Type** changes to match the number of characters in the **Mask**. |
## Operator configuration
