Normal transparency (‘<samp>0</samp>’) – below things is less visible than upper ones. It does not look well in OpenGL mode (mglGraphGL) for several surfaces.

Glass-like transparency (‘<samp>1</samp>’) – below and upper things are commutable and just decrease intensity of light by RGB channel.

Lamp-like transparency (‘<samp>2</samp>’) – below and upper things are commutable and are the source of some additional light. I recommend to set <code>SetAlphaDef(0.3)</code> or less for lamp-like transparency.

<p>There are several functions for setup lighting. The general function is <a href="#light">light</a> which switch on/off the lighting for overall plot. It influence only for graphics which created after <a href="#light">light</a> call (with one exception, OpenGL). Generally MathGL support up to 10 independent light sources. But in OpenGL mode only 8 of light sources is used due to OpenGL limitations. The position, color, brightness of each light source can be set separately. By default only one light source is active. It is source number <code>0</code> with white color, located at top of the plot.

Only last warning will be saved. All warnings/errors produced by MathGL is not critical – the plot just will not be drawn.
