Dear PoVRay gurus
I would like to render a picture of object (protein)
with a depth cueing. Simple z-oriented ground fog does
not work because if the fog distance is too small the
picture is almost white and when it is large there is
almost no depth-cueing efect. I tried hollow box with
interior fading and this works well with black
background:
box {
  <-30, -30, -30>
  < 30,  30,  30>
  texture {pigment {color rgbft <0,0,0,0,1>}}
  hollow interior {fade_power 2 fade_distance 7 fade_color Black }
}
The size of the box is set to approx. fit the object.
I would like to do the same with white background and
white fog but changing the background, fade_color and
pigment color to white causes that there is no depth
cueing. Is it possible to use this with white colour?
Is there any other solution?
Thanks
