Hello List -

I am trying to set the alpha of a BitmapMaterial ( on a plane )
which works when i set the 'useOwnContainer = true'

However that breaks the Z sorting of the planes.

Anyone have tip for that one?


Thanks




Karim

To use viewportlayers, if you put one object on a layer and leave  
everything else, it will not be able to sort the layer around the  
other objects.  To get correct sorting in that case, you need to put  
all objects on layers.  I would recommend using viewport.getChildLayer  
instead as it is significantly faster in most cases.
