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
