Changes the appearance of the atmosphere in a scene.
Use case
Atmospheric effects can be used to make the scene view look more realistic.
How to use the sample
Select one of the three available atmosphere effects. The sky will change to display the selected atmosphere effect.
How it works
Create an ArcGISScene and display it in a SceneView.
Change the atmosphere effect with sceneView.setAtmosphereEffect(atmosphereEffect).
Relevant API
ArcGISScene
AtmosphereEffect
SceneView
Additional information
There are three atmosphere effect options:
Realistic - A realistic atmosphere effect is applied over the entire surface.
Horizon only - The atmosphere effect is applied to the sky (horizon) only.
None - No atmosphere effect. The sky is rendered black with a starfield consisting of randomly placed white dots.
