[Paraview] Opacity in paraview cvs

[kmorel]

I'm just guessing here, but this might have to do with the new depth peeling
transparency.  I've never seen the behavior your describe, but it could
happen if your OpenGL driver has a messed-up implementation of the
extensions the depth peeling requires.  Bugs in the extensions are not all
that uncommon since they are typically the most recent additions to the
driver.

You could try simply updating your video driver.  You could also try
disabling the depth peeling feature in the source code (I'm not exactly sure
the easiest place to do that).  It may also behoove us to have an option to
disable the feature.
