Hi Yuri, We can reproduce the bug and Bug 4626671 is filed for investigation.
Thanks for your bug report. - Kelvin --------------- Java 3D Team Sun Microsystems Inc. >From: Yuri Nikishkov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "'Kelvin Chung'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: RE: [JAVA3D] Transparency problem in 1.2.1 >Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2002 11:13:10 -0500 >MIME-Version: 1.0 > >Kelvin, > >I have investigated the problem more and have been able to localize it. I >have an OrderedGroup object on top of my scene graph (not on the level of >transparent objects) and that seems to be the reason for transparency >problems. If I replace an OrderedGroup instance with a regular Group then >everything works fine. Moreover, I have been able to reproduce it on the >demo example. Please see attached AppearanceTest.java from the Appearance >demo modified to demonstrate the problem. Orbit the scene and you can see >the transparent tetrahedron obstructing the red unlit tetrahedron (and/or >possibly others). > >Java3D v1.2.1_03 has exactly the same problem. v1.3beta1 still has the >problem but the rendering order seems to be different and so are the >obstructed objects (did not try to switch on the transparency sorting). > >Also I would appreciate very much if you can suggest some work-around for >this problem. I cannot get rid of OrderedGroup since I need it to enforce >rendering order to make some objects seen-through. And I need to be able to >correctly show the transparent shapes at least in one branch of the >OrderedGroup. Presently I can do one or the other but not both together. > >Thanks, >Yuri. =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
