# TransparencySortMode

> Transparent object sorting mode of a Camera.

## Definition

* **Type:** Enum
* **Namespace:** [UnityEngine](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.CoreModule

```csharp
public enum TransparencySortMode
```

## Remarks

By default, perspective cameras sort objects based on distance from camera position to the object center; and orthographic cameras sort based on distance along the view direction.

If you're making a 2D game with a perspective camera, you might want to use [TransparencySortMode.Orthographic](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/transparencysortmode/orthographic.md) sort mode so that objects are sorted based on distance along the camera's view.
