the RenderAction by default does not write into the depth buffer when 
rendering transparent objects, which makes sense when rendering semi 
transparent objects (i.e. ones with 0 < alpha < 1).
You can change that by calling raction->setZWriteTrans(true). I don't 
know if VRED has an option for that, sorry.

        Hope it helps,
                Carsten
