Renders all surfaces, meshes, and particles as smooth-shaded objects.
- Textured
-

- Use Default Lighting

- Use All Lights
-

- Display fog
-
In the real world, the atmosphere contains fine particles (fog, smoke, or dust). These particles affect the appearance of the atmosphere and the appearance of objects in the atmosphere.
Display fog in the scene painting view
You can use environment fog to simulate the effect of atmospheric particles. If you use Physical Fog in your scene, you can display it in the scene painting view to see how the Paint Effects strokes look in a rendered fog environment. For information on using Physical Fog, see Atmosphere.
To display fog in the scene painting view
