Hello,

I am wondering if there is a possibility, to define shapes
- which are invisible
- but which occlude other shapes so that these are not rendered anymore when they are behind the invisible shape.

Thanks

Michael

In principle there is no occlusion detection in xith. So this isn't possible, even if we'd introduce a third visibility flag for shapes. Though a BSP tree has precomputed visibility. So this may help.
