# Overlay atom

Atomic Components

The overlay atom is a gradient or color placed on top of an image, component, or page. Transparency can be adjusted to enhance the readability of a text or help prompt action.

### Documentation

We’ll use the Atom overlay mainly in these 2 situations:

- Over an image, a component, or an entire page to ensure the **readability of a text** or any other element in superposition.

*In the examples below: Bookmark / Event / Coupon / Multilevel Card (gradient)*

- **To prompt action by isolating a component** from the rest of the App.

*In the examples below :Floating Menu / Modal*
