## Detailed Description

Provides an abstract class that should be the base of all Material component classes in a scene.

QAbstractMaterial provide a way to specify the rendering of an Entity. Any aspect can define its own subclass of QAbstractMaterial so that a Material can be used to describe a visual element; for example, the way sound should reflect off an element, the temperature of a surface, and so on.

See also QEffect, QMesh, and QComponent.
