Studio gradient world with a horizon band

Build a world that blends ground, horizon and zenith colours by the elevation of the view direction, with an adjustable horizon height and band softness and a separate backdrop strength for the camera. Use it for clean studio renders and stylized skies.

Limits to consider

A smooth three-colour gradient: no sun, clouds or image detail, so it gives soft light without shadows from a direction. The camera strength uses the Light Path node, which EEVEE honours only partly. Rendered here with Cycles CPU only. Verified in Blender 5.2.1; written for the 4.2 API.
