I'm not sure why this is not working for you. Transparency works in every mode for me,
on a variety of Windows Nt/2000 and Linux machines using both the OpenGL and DirectX
APIs. (Well, DirectX in W2K only)
Did you try printing 'trans' out to make sure it's not too large? Try fixing the
value..
Or perhaps your video card doesn't support Alpha-blending through OpenGL. Is that
possible??
Just guessing,

I should point out that this is happening with the OpenGL version of the Java3D RT.
The DirectX version is working.

Subject: TransparencyAttributes only works with SCREEN_DOOR
I'm having some trouble with this bit of code:
final float trans = 1.0f - material.getTransparency();
if (trans > 0.0f)
{
TransparencyAttributes transparency = new TransparencyAttributes();
transparency.setTransparency(trans);
transparency.setTransparencyMode(TransparencyAttributes.SCREEN_DOOR); //
this is the only one that works??
app.setTransparencyAttributes(transparency);
}
TransparencyAttributes allows several different settings for the transparency mode.
But the only one that seems to be working for me is SCREEN_DOOR. If I choose NICEST,
FASTEST, or BLENDED, the object completely disappears.
