Change Details

I've been using the Principled BSDF node for the last few months. During this time I have noticed a fresnel transition between transparency and reflection which is too sudden. I have noticed the problem in a number of circumstances. One of them is also when using the fresnel factor of the fresnel node to transition two different materials. Another is when creating water and observing the sudden change to specular reflection on the surface as the angle to the surface slowly changes. If I can figure out how to attach pictures here I will attach examples shortly.

I've been using the Principled BSDF node for the last few months. During this time I have noticed a fresnel transition between transparency and reflection which is too sudden. Below I will document examples which work and examples which exhibit the broken behavior.
