Detailed Description

This controls the enabling of transparency.

Simply setting an alpha component to non-1 does not in itself make an object transparent; you must also enable transparency mode with a suitable TransparencyAttrib. Similarly, it is wasteful to render an object with a TransparencyAttrib in effect unless you actually want it to be at least partially transparent (and it has alpha components less than 1).
