Qt 3D: One too many threads or what has changed in 5.14
Qt 3D makes heavy use of threads, as a way to spread work across CPU cores and maximize throughput, but also to minimize the chances of blocking the main thread.

3D – Interactions with Qt, KUESA and Qt Design Studio, Part 1 how to create a reflection with minimal computational effort
Neither KUESA or Qt 3D Studio will give free reflections. If you know about 3D, you know it requires ray tracing software, not OpenGL. So, I wondered if there would be an easy way to create this effect.
