Hi,
brlcad has left the following comment at Design a set of visualization mode
(wireframe/hidden/flat/translucent/opaque) icons #3

I like it but...
These are looking fantastic Marc, but a few adjustments/issues noticed:
consistency -- the wireframe box is oriented differently from the other
three but is conceptually the same thing
hidden doesn't mean the object is missing, it's more like this:

flat, translucent/transparent, and opaque are indeed all similar but flat
is more like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shading (see the
flat-shaded sphere on the right)
translucent is just what it sounds like, being able to see through the
object(s) slightly:
http://bluebeam.com/us/support/help/revu12/Content/RevuHelp/3D%20viewing/Geometry%20Render%20Modes.htm
what you have for opaque would work well for flat, and you can make opaque
be something that represents a higher-resolution rendering (a ray trace
rendering perhaps)
