title: Snippet.rotate()
---

The `Snippet.rotate()` method allows you to scale a snippet. Under the hood, it
sets the `data-rotate` property.

## Signature

```js
Snippet snippet.rotate(rotation, overwrite=true)
```

:::tip
This method is chainable as it returns the `Snippet` object

## Example

<Example caption="An example of the Snippet.rotate() method">
```js
({ Point, Path, paths, Snippet, snippets, part }) => {

for (const i of [0,1,2,3,4,5,6]) {
snippets[`demo${i}`] = new Snippet(
"logo",
new Point(60*i, 0)
).rotate(60 * i)
}

// Prevent clipping
paths.diag = new Path()
.move(new Point(-30,-50))
.move(new Point(400,50))

return part
}

```
</Example>
