well it's ok.
however, using alpha-blending for just turning on/off is a bit of an
overhead.

you could enable/disable the complete render chain by sending 1/0 to the
gemhead, so your patch would just look like:

[tgl]
|
[gemhead]
|
[square]

(no need for color, alpha,...)


or you can disable part of the render-chain with a [spigot] (between
[gemhead] and [square])


but we are really talking about peanuts here.
