NAME

DoTranspColor − Create a transparent color primitive attribute object

SYNOPSIS

C:

DtObject DoTranspColor(colormodel, color)
DtColorModel colormodel;
DtReal color[];

Fortran:

INTEGER∗4 DOTC(COLMOD, COLOR)
INTEGER∗4 COLMOD
REAL∗8 COLOR(∗)

DESCRIPTION

DoTranspColor creates a transparent color primitive attribute object.  The parameter colormodel specifies the color model.  The parameter color specifies the color of the light that can be transmitted through the surface.  In effect, the transparent color of an object can be thought of as its filter color. 

The transparent color is one of three aspects of the transparent component of a surface.  The other components are the transparent color’s intensity and the applicability of transparent components to a surface. 

The use of this attribute during rendering is renderer-dependent.  Some renderers which support transparancy do not support a transparent color. 

DEFAULTS

The default DoTranspColor is (DcRGB, (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)).
