[JAVA3D] TransparencyAttributes

[Casteel, Don]

I'm trying to turn transparency on and off for a live Shape3D object
(quadShape). The capability bits are all set correctly, and I'm getting no
exceptions with the following method.

The println("message") is returning the correct message, but the quadShape
object is not changing transparency.

I've double checked both transparencyAttributes objects, and they both work
when generating a new sceneGraph.

Any Ideas?

//---------------------------------------------------------------
public void adjSurf()
 {
 if(isTransparent)
   {
   quadAppearance.setTransparencyAttributes(transparencyAttributes);
   System.out.println("Transparent");
   }
 else
   {
   quadAppearance.setTransparencyAttributes(transparencyAttributesOpaque);
   System.out.println("Opaque");
   };
 quadShape.setAppearance(quadAppearance);
 };
