PARAMETERS

n
Number of scalar transparency values.
transparency
An array of scalar transparencies.
per
A flag indicating how transparencies are to be applied.

DESCRIPTION

This function adds transparencies to the current point set, line set, polygon set, triangle mesh set, sphere set, cylinder set, or grid. The current object is the primitive or pushed transform most recently defined, or it may be explicitly set with cxGeoFocus(3E).

Transparency may be applied in different ways, depending on the setting of the per flag:

CX_GEO_PER_OBJECT
a single attribute is used over the entire object
CX_GEO_PER_FACE
a different attribute is applied on each face (valid for polygons, triangles, and grids)
CX_GEO_PER_VERTEX
a different attribute is applied per vertex (valid for points, lines, polygons, triangles, and grids)
CX_GEO_PER_VERTEX_INDEXED
a different attribute is applied on each reference to a vertex (valid for lines, polygons, and triangles)

A transparency is a scalar value in the range [0..1]. A transparency of 0 corresponds to fully opaque.
