[osg-users] Drawing a partially transparent image in a quad

[L. Voerman]

Hi Jose,
You may have a black background, with the blending actually (partly)
working, change
getCamera()->setClearColor( osg::Vec4(r,g,b,a) );
to see if that's the case.
the stuff that needs blending needs to be rendered after the background,
normally done with:
stateset->setRenderingHint(osg::StateSet::TRANSPARENT_BIN);

If it's not blending at all I would recommend you to check if your image
did not end up as an RGB image instead of RGBA.
Regards, Laurens.
