Hi all,

I’m looking for a solution to fade in / out objects without hidden faces visible. A classical “alpha” like on DisplayObjects.

I do not see a solution using materials methods and there is only a boolean
on ObjectContainer3D ( visible or not ).

Thanks

i use this code to set alpha of a material:

BitmapMaterial(yourObject.material).colorTransform = new ColorTransform(1110); 

hope that helps

Thank for your reply,

Using Colortransform on material with 0 / 1 alpha will work, but I want to tween that. For example using 0.5 you will see through the object, hidden faces will become visible.

I’m looking for an “alpha” ( or fake one that’s look real grin ) that do not display hidden faces.

My bad 80prozent you are right, I had issue due to incorrect normals.

material.alpha / material.colortransform methods works fine but .... I suppose there will be issue with non convex models as hidden faces normals will face the camera.

Thanks again, Cheers
