[osg-users] Compute occluding transparent objects

[Pierre-Jean Petitprez]

Hi,

I need to render transparent objects in my scene. But they need to be sorted front-to-back (like if they were not transparent) and not back-to-front like it's done when using the depthSortedBin render hint.
The reason I need to do that (I know it sounds stupid) is because I want to have my "transparent" objects occlude the other "transparent" objects that are behind them. That way, we should only see the closest transparent object and not the other objects that are behind it.

Is there a way to force front-to-back rendering on transparent bin ?

Thank you!

Cheers,
