Lo all,

I would swear that I have heard or read this somewhere, but I can't find
it.

Does IR graphics cause the Opaque bin and Transparent bin to be
combined?

Can this problem be solved?

Imagine 2 planes that form an X. Both are slightly transparent. How can
I draw them so that where one is in front of the other I can see the
other one behind it, and yet see the same thing when they switch?

The man pages I read seem to imply this is impossible since sorting is
on a per GeoSet level instead of a perPrimitive basis.

Thanks.
