What is the difference between Canvas Render Mode set to Overlay and Canvas Render Mode set to Camera

Hi everyone!
I am new to unity. I am in real confusion to understand the difference between Canvas Render Mode set to Overlay and Camera.
It seems like both serve the same purpose. Please help me out from this confusion

Thanks in advance

Hi @Sandeep_Mattepu,

There is a good definition here, need to scroll down a bit to the Details section…

Hope this helps. :slight_smile:

Thanks @Rob for replying back.
I got my concepts clear now. Thanks for helping me. Small suggestion needed. Can we use overlay instead of camera in the Bowl Master tutorial context. Or there is any particular reasons to use only camera rather than overlay. Or it’s just personal preference to make it look like the way we want it to.
