Thank you Abenz and thank you Hans.
The file may well be helpful to see what is different, the model not so. It can be shared as Hans's link shows or left click on my name to show my email. What i need is a large triangular mirror for a cabinet that fits under stairs.
The earlier parts of this thread i find confusing, mirror, walls, light sources and mannequins.... just a mirror, Hans says mtl Emmanuel says not .... me....confused.

Thx again to both, appreciate you taking the time to assist

Any chance someone could explain this in a step by step manner, i keep getting something that looks like frosted glass.
Appreciate any help

You must follow the steps cited by Puybaret.
Download the rectangular mirror as a template.

To sum up, you just have to add the prefix [font=courier new]sweethome3d_window_mirror[/font] to the part of the object that you want to turn into a mirror in its .obj file.

Hi Enk, thx for the reply, unfortunately Puybaret's links lead to a page of greek

[Mike53]

Well.... that was easy, wish i had done that a few days ago.

obj. file should end up looking like this....

mtllib xxxxxxx.mtl
g sweethome3d_window_mirror_xxxxxx
usemtl xxxxxx

no need to touch the mtl.

Thx everyone for the assist...Thank you Enkonyito [:-$]
