Remarks

The global ambient light affects the brightness and color of the whole 3D scene and is not dependent on light sources. It takes effect only when lighting is enabled. Note that since all object are influenced by the global ambient light it is recommended to assign shades of gray to this color because otherwise the scene will have a color attenuation.
