[Paraview-developers] Windows 7 transparency appears too transparent (second posting)

[Hallock, Kevin]

Spheres seem to render just fine.  Is there a way to open a file without having it apply everything immediately?  I have been able to open some individual parts of the original model so I would like to load each part of the whole model individually to see if I can identify what is causing the crash.

Thanks,

Kevin

It does sound like a driver issue to me as well, since we use the same depth peeling code on both platforms.

While Utkarsh is looking at the file opening issue, can you try another test in ParaView 5.1.0? Something simple, like a sphere source with opacity < 1. I'm curious if the new implementation hits the same problem.

Thanks,
Dave

Could you share the file? Any other info to reproduce this issue? This
was on Windows still?
