#version 140

// X-Ray view: each surface is a thin translucent layer of its own color, covering more the more
// edge-on it is seen. The caller draws it with depth writes off, so every surface a view ray crosses
// composites and overlapping geometry reads as denser. Source-alpha rather than additive blending:
// additive would saturate to white on the light theme's near-white background.
#define EDGE_FALLOFF 2.0
// Coverage head-on and edge-on.
#define FACE_DENSITY 0.12
#define EDGE_DENSITY 0.65
