Hello,
I am working with two copies of a molecule (moved relative to each other),
each being a separate object. Cartoons in both are set to be transparent
(cartoon_transparency=0.5), but after ray tracing there is no transparency
(or shadows) between objects (first objects completely obscures the
second), while transparency within an object works as expected.
Is this by design? I noticed that if I make a composite objects,
transparency works, but one of the reasons I want separate objects is to
have different cartoon transparencies in each molecule, which AFAIK cannot
be achieved within a single object.
My ultimate goal is to make an image, in which one molecule (shown as
cartoon) is close to the camera and is highly transparent ~90%, while the
other is a little further and is only slightly transparent (~10%). I
thought I could do this with two objects, but since transparency does not
seem to work I cannot see the second molecule through the first one after
ray tracing. Interestingly before ray tracing, I can see through the first
molecule (object), but that is gone after the tracing
Any suggestions or workarounds?
Thanks,
Miro
