Re: Object surfaces reflect environment?
Well, my problem is partially solved:

I finally saw the "shininess" option in lower right corner of the "modify furniture" popup. (The popup you get when you double-click on an object currently in use in the 2D panel.) When I selected its "matt" radio button, the reflections stopped being drawn. Re-selecting "original" restored them.

Unfortunately, this option has to be applied individually to each object that's currently visible. I would have liked to apply the matt option to the object in the Catalog view (so it doesn't have be applied each time) and to only one of the surface colors, but this seems to be an acceptable compromise for the moment.

So far I haven't found a non-reflective object in the Catalog which doesn't also have a surface texture image (which I'd rather avoid). I'll keep looking.
