# opacityThreshold

A threshold below which RealityKit ignores opacity.

## Declaration

```swift
var opacityThreshold: Float? { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion When opacityThreshold is set, RealityKit discards pixels with opacity values less than the opacityThreshold, and renders opacity values greater than or equal to opacityThreshold fully opaque. note: When the opacityThreshold property is set, the blend mode of the blending property is ignored and the renderer applies the masking behavior.
