# Lens Flare (SRP) component reference

Refer to [Add lens flares](lens-flare-component.md) for information on how to use the Lens Flare (SRP) component.

## General

| **Property**    | **Description**                                              |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Lens Flare Data | Select the [Lens Flare (SRP) Data](lens-flare-asset.md) asset this component controls. |
| Intensity     | Multiplies the intensity of the lens flare. |
| Scale         | Multiplies the scale of the lens flare. |
| Light Override  | Specifies the light component Unity gets the color and shape values from, if you enable **Modulate By Light Color** or **Attenuation By Light Shape**. If you don't specify a light component, Unity uses the Light component from this GameObject. |
| Attenuation by Light Shape | Enable this property to automatically change the appearance of the lens flare based on the type of light you attached this component to.<br/>For example, if this component is attached to a spot light and the camera is looking at this light from behind, the lens flare is not visible. <br/>This property is only available when this component is attached to a light. |
| Attenuation Distance |The distance between the start and the end of the Attenuation Distance Curve.<br/>This value operates between 0 and 1 in world space.  |
| Attenuation Distance Curve | Fades out the appearance of the lens flare over the distance between the GameObject this asset is attached to, and the Camera. |
| Scale Distance | The distance between the start and the end of the **Scale Distance Curve**.<br/>This value operates between 0 and 1 in world space. |
| Scale Distance Curve | Changes the size of the lens flare over the distance between the GameObject this asset is attached to, and the Camera. |
| Screen Attenuation Curve | Reduces the effect of the lens flare based on its distance from the edge of the screen. You can use this to display a lens flare at the edge of your screen |

## Occlusion

| **Property**    | **Description**                                              |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Enable | Enable this property to partially obscure the lens flare based on the depth buffer |
| Occlusion Radius | Defines how far from the light source Unity occludes the lens flare. This value is in world space. |
| Sample Count | The number of random samples the CPU uses to generate the **Occlusion Radius.** |
| Occlusion Offset | Offsets the plane that the occlusion operates on. A higher value moves this plane closer to Camera. This value is in world space. <br/>For example, if a lens flare is inside the light bulb, you can use this to sample occlusion outside the light bulb. |
| Occlusion Remap Curve | Allow the occlusion [from 0 to 1] to be remap with any desired shape. |
| Allow Off Screen | Enable this property to allow lens flares outside the Camera's view to affect the current field of view. |
