Description
Run the attached app from FX8-3DAPI.
Press M to switch diffuseMap
Press C to switch diffuseColor
The texture is shown only when diffuseColor set to null or Color.TRANSPARENT.
I'd expect them to either combine or map to override color setting.
Comments
No, it isn't missing. Please see the latest docs, which will be in b120.

Will add this specification into the javadoc for PhongMaterial.

Kevin and I have discussed. The mathematical equation for the diffuseComponent is the vector multiplication of diffuseMap and diffuseColor where the default diffuseColor is set to (1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0). This change will make user of diffuseMap only case feels intuitive and allow the flexibility of mixing diffuseColor is there a need.

Attaching another example that clearly shows that the current behavior is confusing. You set diffuseMap for material but doesn't get the texture because Material has not null default diffuseColor.

I agree with Alex as well. I think it makes sense for texture map to override the color. Or perhaps some kind of combination.

I agree with Alexander. Ideally, they would be combined, but if one of them must take precedence, then the texture should override the color, not the other way around.
