Re: weird green glow

Hi,

Sorry it took so long to reply, I don't have email at my work account right
now. Ok, I took a screen shot of the green glow and put it up on my school
website at

www.stanford.edu/~vjchem

the last link, "Visad Green Glow" will be the picture. The more I look at it,
the more sure I am that the problem is java3d, not visad, but any ideas you
have will be appreciated. thanks,

vj

Hopefully you don't need a priest. But seriously, I wasn't
able to duplicate the problem using 'java Test20' which allows
me to interactively experiment with alpha values = 0. The fact
that the green area doesn't rotate with the display sounds
very strange. My laptop has a defective area on its screen
and your problem sounds like that. If you can email a GIF
image it might help. Off hand it doesn't sound like a VisAD
problem.

Cheers,
Bill
