# colorFormat

> The format of the RenderTarget is expressed as a RenderTextureFormat. Internally, this format is stored as a GraphicsFormat compatible with the current system (see SystemInfo.GetCompatibleFormat ). Therefore, if you set a format and immediately get it again, it may return a different result from the one just set.
