Hello,
Just a small thing I came across. I thought it might be useful to get
it out there. I am setting the transparency attribute of an object to
0.6 and behind this object is a wall with a texture on it (therefore, I
should see the textured wall through the object). However, I had to do
the following to get it to work:
1) Instantiating a new TransparencyAttribute and then setting its
transparency didn't work. That is:
TransparencyAttribute transatt = new TransparencyAttribute();
transatt.setTransparency(0.6);
objectappearance.setTransparencyAttribute(transatt);
I guess the transparency mode is NONE by default right? because it works
if I set it to anything but NONE. That is:
TransparencyAttribute transatt = new TransparencyAttribute(
TransparencyAttribute.NICEST,0.6);
objectappearance.setTransparencyAttribute(transatt);
This WORKS, but the object disappears when the textured wall is behind
it (the texture gets rendered over the object).
2) I could only see the object (and through it the wall) if the
transparency mode was set to SCREEN_DOOR. Why is that?
Thanks!
Mojtaba
