Component image 
Depth Material component as seen in the Scene Inspector
The DepthMaterial component renders everything behind it in black and white depending on how far away it is from the camera.
Fields
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
persistent
|
Bool | Determines whether or not this item will be saved to the server. |
UpdateOrder
|
Int | Controls the order in which this component is updated. |
Enabled
|
Bool | Controls whether or not this component is enabled. Some components stop their functionality when this field is disabled, but some don't. |
HighPriorityIntegration
|
Bool | If true, integrating this asset (e.g. processing procedural assets) gets higher priority than assets with this flag off. An example is user laser procedural meshes. |
Rect
|
Rect | See RectClip on Materials. |
RectClip
|
Bool | Toggles if the material should use Rect
|
ColorMask
|
ColorMask | What colors behind the material should make it through the filter. |
StencilComparison
|
StencilComparison | See Type:StencilComparison for an in depth explanation on what this does. |
StencilOperation
|
StencilOperation | See Type:StencilOperation for an in depth explanation on what this does. |
StencilID
|
Byte | The Stencil ID of this material. This is sometimes written to the frame buffer's Stencil mask, or used to determine whether this material should render for a particular pixel. |
StencilWriteMask
|
Byte | does a Bitwise AND with this number for every pixel in the frame buffer this is rendering on top of when this object is drawn, after reading from the buffer. |
StencilReadMask
|
Byte | is bitwise ANDed with the Stencil in the frame buffer before the test compares them. |
RenderQueue
|
Int | changes at which point a material renders on the render stack |
_shader
|
Shader | Internal. |
Multiply
|
Float | how much to multiply the resulting color. |
Offset
|
Float | how much to add or remove from the resulting color. |
Clip
|
Bool | whether to clip the depth range. |
ClipStart
|
Float | the depth start value, which is the minimum distance from the camera which will be black. |
ClipEnd
|
Float | the depth end value, which is the maximum distance from the camera, which will be white. |
BlendMode
|
BlendMode | How to blend this material's colors vs what it rendered on top of. |
Sidedness
|
Sidedness | Render on both sides of the mesh, front, or back. |
ZWrite
|
ZWrite | whether this material should respect the distance it is from the camera. |
ZTest
|
ZTest | Determines whether this object should render when it is in front of or behind other objects that respect depth from the camera |
Usage
Attach to a slot and apply to a Component:MeshRenderer or Component:SkinnedMeshRenderer to see the visual effect this component makes.
Examples
Can be used to make a blindess or sonar effect.
