Class Fog

java.lang.Object
org.web3d.x3d.jsail.X3DConcreteElement
org.web3d.x3d.jsail.X3DConcreteNode
org.web3d.x3d.jsail.EnvironmentalEffects.Fog
All Implemented Interfaces:
X3DBindableNode, X3DChildNode, X3DNode, Fog, X3DFogObject
public class Fog extends X3DConcreteNode implements Fog
Fog simulates atmospheric effects by blending distant objects with fog color.

Warning: this is an abstract interface that cannot be instantiated as a concrete object. Java programmers typically only need to use concrete objects provided by the org.web3d.x3d.jsail classes. Fog node tooltip: [X3DBindableNode,X3DFogObject] Fog simulates atmospheric effects by blending distant objects with fog color.
  • Hint: Background, Fog, GeoViewpoint, NavigationInfo, OrthoViewpoint, TextureBackground and Viewpoint are bindable nodes, meaning that no more than one of each node type can be active at a given time.
  • Warning: results are undefined if a bindable node (Background, Fog, NavigationInfo, OrthoViewpoint, TextureBackground, Viewpoint) is a contained descendant node of either LOD or Switch. Avoid this authoring pattern.

Note that SFColor provides a variety of color constants.

Package hint: This org.web3d.x3d.jsail concrete class is used for implementing a standalone X3D object as a Plain Old Java Object (POJO). If you are writing Java code for use inside an X3D Script node, compile separate code using only the org.web3d.x3d.sai package instead.
