# Outline Effect Controller

Outline effect is built-in highlight effect for Tutorial Factory. You could always use your own highlight effect and some other good assets, such as Highlight Plus from Kronnect.

{% hint style="info" %}
Please use OutlineEffectControllerURP for the URP render pipeline. Remember to add Outline Render feature to the URP render pipeline asset.
{% endhint %}

## Setup OutlineEffectController

1. Create a new GameObject and add OutlineEffectController component to the gameobject. 
2. Assign camera to Camera to have highlight effect.
3. Set Buffer Draw Event to 'Before Image Effects'.
4. Adjust Downsample and Blur Size if you want to have different look. 
5. Adjust Color to your own choice. Remember to reduce alpha of color to show original object.
6. Now you should have outline effect by checking 'Highlight Target' on [#targets](https://hsv-studio.gitbook.io/tutorial-factory/tutorials-objects#targets "mention").
