Does translucency work in WebGL version of Jmol?
I was trying out the WebGL version of JSmol and was very impressed with the fluid movement. However, trying out the WebGL implementation for the Virtual Museum of Minerals and Molecules, I couldn't get translucency to work for the polyhedra. To verify, I wrote to the console on the caffeine molecule at http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/jsmol/jsmolgl.htm :<http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/jsmol/jsmolgl.htm> select *;polyhedra {*} DELETE;polyhedra 4 BONDS; color polyhedra translucent grey <http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/jsmol/jsmolgl.htm> In Java and html5, it produced the desired results but not WebGL. Tried both FF and Chrome to make sure this was not a browser implementation thing. Looking at the Jmol wiki, I see "The WebGL modality of JSmol has not been fully developed and feature support is limited" Can Bob confirm that transparency is one of the missing features and kindly inform as to if/when it might be provided? --Phil
