Coloured glass is opaque in hand and inventory but translucent in hot-bar or game (also goes fully transparent in game)

Glass is opaque in your hand and in the inventory but in the hot bar or when placed it is translucent as expected. This is using a custom texture pack.

Coloured glass also goes completely transparent on occasion once placed. This can be fixed by either changing view angle.

You're using a texture pack. The bug is non-related to vanilla minecraft.

@Steven McQueeen:
Unlrelated to any texturepack - happens in vanilla too. I think this is one of those "not so easy to fix" bugs (transparent items are problematic). Same with ice blocks in the inventory ... if there's already a ticket about non-transparent ice block items resolved as "works as intended", I would do the same for this ticket.

The last part of the issue is a duplicate of MC-31658 (the first part is works-as-intended). Glass is displayed with fully transparency instead of partial transparency because it is below 50%, which is reasonable.

Note that as I said in the comments of that issue, it is a big deal because due to removing backface culling (which can be a GOOD feature on its own, and certainly helps with perception of where the glass is), the texture is actually blended with itself (as you are always looking through 2 faces), meaning it is more opaque than the texture itself, severely limiting how transparent a stained glass texture can be.

OK I understand why it occurs now, thank you for the comments.
