Definition

Enhanced transparency provides improved rendering for transparent surfaces. Rather than using surfaces' bounding boxes to determine their distance from the viewpoint, enhanced transparency utilizes pixel-by-pixel analysis to determine the order in which the surfaces must be rendered.

Using enhanced transparency increases the consumption of GPU memory and reduces the number of images per second. This option is disabled by default.

Note

The option Enhanced transparency is not compatible with the use of transparent mirrors. When enhanced transparency is enabled, transparent mirrors are treated as simple transparent surfaces.
