Hi Mathias,

Transparency rendering is not always correct because of
the need to sort geometry. In your case you might have
better results if you change the order of addReference()
calls for your data objects. Note that Test61 mixes an
opaque slice with a transparent volume.

Another way to get axis ranges is to create a DisplayListener
and have it wait for a DisplayEvent.TRANSFORM_DONE, then
call getRange() on all the ScalarMaps.

Good luck,
Bill
