# Swizzle
|
||
|
||
Menu Path : **Operator > Math > Vector**
|
||
|
||
The **Swizzle** [uniform Operator](Operators.md#uniform-operators) rearranges the input vector’s 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).
|
||
|
||
