Description
Environment
Second Life Release 26.1.0.22359044520 (64bit)
Description
Glow when set to 1 seems to bounce around when zoomed in. Transparency was set to 50%
Example of the bug (thanks @WendiLinden!): https://gyazo.com/d83da352f70f0330797996683870359e
Initially we thought it was a regression, but I just got it reproing on the release viewer too.
Reproduction steps
- Create a mesh object with transparency at 50% and glow at 1.
- Zoom in close.
- The glow bounces disconnecting from the body.

Research direction
No source file or test is named. First reproduce the issue in the release viewer with a mesh at 50% transparency and glow 1 while zoomed in, then trace the mesh rendering path for transparency and glow handling. Done means the glow remains attached to the mesh in the reported reproduction case.
