### Remarks

Similar to [RenderTexture](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/rendertexture.md), a graphics texture with the RenderTarget flag can be used to implement image based rendering effects, dynamic shadows, projectors, reflections or surveillance cameras.

A RenderTexture's current graphicsTexture will always have this flag set.
