[Paraview] one 3d model transparent color + one 3d model normal color for vrml

[Sebastien Jourdain]

That's the tricker part, because your scalar + the lookup table will
determine the color.
That's also the reason why I asked you why you just export your scene
in VRML with the correct settings color+opacity of all you objects ?

Do you need them to be defined as a single mesh inside the VRML ?
