Parameters

type
Type: OIV.Inventor.ActionsSoGLRenderActionTransparencyTypes

Implements

SiRenderAreaTransparencySetTransparencyType(SoGLRenderActionTransparencyTypes)
Remarks

Default is SCREEN_DOOR. See SoGLRenderAction for possible transparency types. See also the SoTransparencyType node.

Note: When using transparency types with DELAYED in the name, the depth buffer is not updated (depth buffer writes are disabled) while rendering transparent objects. As a result complex 3D shapes may not be rendered correctly.
