How to apply Ripple3D effect without side-effect to other object?

cocos2d-x C++
#1

I’m trying apply Ripple3D effect to a layer that is behind another layer, and partially visible.

However, the tips of the waves appear penetrating the upper layer, when I run the action.

I tried the solution written here, but I couldn’t even make it build because of the problem with referenct to glDepthFunc.

How can I apply Ripple3D to a layer (or sprite) without any side-effect to other object?

I think Ripple3D and other effect can not be used like this way. I effect the whole view.

Thanks for your reply!

The demo app shows Ripple3D working without any side-effects to other object like label or menu icon overlaid on the moving node.

Its source code is cocos2d-x/tests/tests/EffectsTest/EffectsTest.cpp.

I’m trying to do the same way, but it seems I’m doing something wrong…

I figured it myself.
Adding the line below fixed everything.

CCDirector::sharedDirector()->setDepthTest(false);

Oh, great.
