Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Hi Dave, I ran your program and didn't see any transparency as you said. I tried my own program to get transparency for your MathType and Data without any success. I can display my own data with my program with transparency but I recognized that transparency only seem to work for volume plots. If I choose a MathType of ((x, y, z) -> value) for my data and switch of the point mode I can see transparency. But if I have an indexed MathType like yours (index -> (x, y, z, value)) representing only single points I am not able to set up any transparency. That's all I can say about that, sorry. Seems like visad and/or java3d don't support transparency for points but for volumes. I'm sure Bill or someone else can say more about this. Cheers, Mathias
