## Definition

* **Type:** Property

```

### Remarks

This is the default axis used by the rendering pipeline for sorting in [TransparencySortMode.CustomAxis](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/transparencysortmode/customaxis.md) mode for all Cameras including the SceneView's. You may override this for each invididual Camera by calling [Camera.transparencySortAxis](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/camera/transparencysortaxis.md) and [Camera.transparencySortMode](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/camera/transparencysortmode.md) APIs.
