[vtkusers] vtkLODActor->GetProperty()->SetColor() does not maintain the input color?

[Hong Yi]

A little bit more experimental results on this:

Looks like the orange color (255, 128, 0) changes to yellow (255, 255, 0) (with green component bumped up to 255), the bluish color (0, 128, 255) changes to cyan (0, 255, 255) (again with green component bumped up to 255). The red color (255, 0, 0) and the pick color (255, 0, 255) will be preserved though. Hopefully this bit of experiment observation could provide some kind of clues on this...

Thanks,

Hong

See attached image with opacity set to 1.0. There are still the same kind of color mismatch (orange->yellow)...

Looking forward to further insight on this.

Thanks,

Hong

I'ld think this should just be making things things darker for the most part in this scene, but what happens if you change to 1.0 to turn of translucency?
