# overlayArrangementZIndex

The z-index for a view within an overlay arrangement view.

## Declaration

```swift
var overlayArrangementZIndex: Int { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion Use this value to read the z-ordering of a view when it is placed in an overlay arrangement. Views with a higher z-index are rendered on top of views with a lower z-index. struct PlayerView: View {     @Environment(\.overlayArrangementZIndex) var zIndex

var body: some View {         VideoPlayerControls()             .opacity(zIndex == 0 ? 1.0 : 0.5)     } }
