3DBar colors

When i use setSeriesPaint(0, new Color(255,0,0,128) to set the transparency of a color on a BarRenderer3D, it correctly shows the
transparency for the "front" panel of the bar, but the side and top are
still an alpha 1.0. Is this a bug, or are these drawn from a different
value?

It is this code in the BarRenderer3D class that causes the problem:

Code: Select all

if (itemPaint instanceof Color) {
    g2.setPaint(((Color) itemPaint).darker());
}

If you comment it out, the problem goes away. I don't know if losing the transparency is a bug in the darker() method, or a feature.
