# shouldBeOpaque

A Boolean value that indicates if semitransparent content presents as opaque.

## Declaration

```swift
var shouldBeOpaque: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion When this property is true, semitransparent content in the stream presents as backed by a solid white background, making the resulting image fully opaque. The default value is false.
