# RenderQueue

> Determine in which order objects are renderered.

## Definition

* **Type:** Enum
* **Namespace:** [UnityEngine.Rendering](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityengine/rendering.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.CoreModule

```csharp
public enum RenderQueue
```

## Remarks

This way for example transparent objects are rendered after opaque objects, and so on.
