alpha源混合系數通常設置為D3DBLEND_SRCALPHA，即當前繪制像素的alpha值。目標混合系數設置為D3DBLEND_INVSRCALPHA，即1減去當前繪制像素的alpha值。那么當前繪制像素的alpha值又是如何得到的呢？如果沒有使用材質和紋理，當前繪制像素的alpha值來自每個頂點顏色設置的alpha值；如果使用光照和材質，則當前像素的alpha值來自物體表面材質；如果為物體表面使用了紋理，則alpha值還與紋理有關。
頂點alpha
如果在程序中直接指定每個頂點的顏色，則可以直接給出每個頂點顏色的 alpha值，可以在定義頂點時直接聲明該頂點的alpha值，也可以在程序運行時動態地修改頂點的alpha值。有了頂點的alpha值，渲染對象中每個像素的alpha值由該對象的alpha值和著色模式決定。當著色模式為FLAT著色模式時，構成對象的各個多邊形中所有像素的alpha都等于該多邊形的第一個頂點的alpha值。當著色模式為GOURAUD著色模式時，每個多邊形面上的像素的alpha值由它的各個頂點的alpha值進行線性插值得到的。
示例程序:
圓筒在不斷的繞x, y, z軸旋轉。
按下數字鍵"1"，啟用alpha頂點混合
按下數字鍵"0"，禁用alpha頂點混合
