Problem while attempting to create a translucent RenderSurfaceView

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello.

First of all, thank you for your OpenGL framework, which is very handy (BTW, I 
have some suggestions concerning some minor architectural concerns that I will 
take time to deliver to you).

I'm currently trying to make the RenderSurfaceView translucent, with no 
success. Before invoking the "applyRenderer()" method, I invoke a 
"getHolder().setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT)" on the RenderSurfaceView 
instance (as suggested in the GLSurfaceView Android documentation), but this 
does not seem to produce any effect.

Could you indicate how to achieve that, please? Thank you for your support and 
your time. Regards,
Édouard
