Looks like I'm running into an issue with View's
transparency sorting and/or transparency mode
toggling ...

If the View transparency sorting policy is set to
SORT_GEOMETRY, and at run time the transparency
mode of TransparencyAttributes is changed to BLENDED
from NONE, then I find that the geometry
simply disappears from the Canvas - could be
transparency is auto set to 1.f in this case,
may be...

The test case is GeometryByRefernceTest.java demo
bundled with the Java 3D package with the following mod.:
u.getViewer()
 .getView()
 .setTransparencySortingPolicy(
                          TRANSPARENCY_SORT_GEOMETRY );

Is this a known issue or am I missing a capability bit
or such somewhere ?

Question, related to this issue, is whether or
not a geometry will be dynamically added or removed
from the View's transparency sorting list when the
transparency mode is toggled between BLENDED and NONE.

TIA

Vaidya
