    \qmltype Fog
    \inherits QtObject
    \inqmlmodule QtQuick3D
    \brief Specifies fog settings for a scene.
    \since 6.5
 
    When the \l{QQuick3DSceneEnvironment::fog}{fog} property of a \l
    SceneEnvironment is set to a valid Fog object, the properties are used to
    configure the rendering of fog.
 
    \image fog.jpg
 
    The simple fog provided by this type is implemented by the materials. It is
    not a post-processing effect, meaning it does not involve additional render
    passes processing the texture with the output of the \l View3D, but is
    rather implemented in the fragment shader for each renderable object
    (submesh of \l Model) with a \l PrincipledMaterial or shaded \l
    CustomMaterial.
 
    Fog is configured by a number of properties:
 
    \list
 
    \li General settings: \l color and \l density
 
    \li Depth fog settings: \l depthEnabled, \l depthNear, \l depthFar, \l depthCurve
 
    \li Height fog settings: \l heightEnabled, \l leastIntenseY, \l mostIntenseY, \l heightCurve
 
    \li Color transmission settings: \l transmitEnabled, \l transmitCurve
 
    \endlist
 
    For example, the following snippet enables depth (but not height) fog using
    the default fog parameters:
 
    \qml
        environment: SceneEnvironment {
            backgroundMode: SceneEnvironment.Color
            clearColor: theFog.color
            fog: Fog {
                id: theFog
                enabled: true
                depthEnabled: true
            }
        }
    \endqml
 
    Instead of defining the Fog object inline, it is also possible to reference
    a Fog object by \c id. And since \l ExtendedSceneEnvironment inherits
    everything from its parent type \l SceneEnvironment, fog can be used with
    \l ExtendedSceneEnvironment as well:
 
    \qml
        Fog {
            id: theFog
            enabled: true
            depthEnabled: true
        }
        environment: ExtendedSceneEnvironment {
            fog: theFog
        }
    \endqml

    \qmlproperty real Fog::density
 
    Controls the fog amount, in practice this is a multiplier in range 0-1. The
    default value is 1.0. Reducing the value decreases the strength of the fog
    effect. Applicable only when depthEnabled is set to true.
 
    The on-screen visual effect may be affected by a number of other settings
    from \l ExtendedSceneEnvironment, such as tonemapping or glow and bloom.
    The same density value may give different results depending on what other
    effects are enabled, and how those are configured.
 
    An example scene with density set to \c{0.95}:

    As an example, take this scene, first with a higher depthNear value.
 
    \image fog_depthnear_higher.jpg
 
    Decreasing the value of depthNear results in the fog effectively "moving
    closer" to the camera as it now starts from a smaller distance from the
    camera:

    \note The scene, including the camera and the models, are expected to be set
    up accordingly, so that sensible ranges can be defined by properties such
    as depthNear and depthFar. Do not expect that fog can always be enabled on
    a scene containing assets imported as-is, without tuning the transforms
    first. For example, the example screenshots on this page with the
    \l{https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glTF-Sample-Models/tree/master/2.0/Sponza}{Sponza}
    model are generated after manually applying an additional scale of \c{(100,

    Specifies the position (Y coordinate) where the fog is the least intense.

    true.
 
    \note By default the value is larger than mostIntenseY. As long as this is
    true, the fog is rendered top to bottom. When this value is smaller than
    mostIntenseY, the fog will render bottom to top.
 
    \note The Y axis points upwards in Qt Quick 3D scenes.
 
    Pictured here is a scene with height fog enabled (no depth fog), and
    leastIntenseY set to a value so the fog is only spreading around the bottom
    of the Sponza scene.
 
    \image fog_height_least_y_smaller.jpg
 
    Increasing the value of leastIntenseY makes the fog spread higher since it
    now effectively starts at a higher Y position in the scene. (remember that
    the Y axis points upwards)
