Translucency with new version

Post by WriterBLAlley »

Can anyone tell me why models made in a previous version now appear translucent, even though they are solid?
The generated background is showing through my models.

If by models, you mean the walls of your house model, then check 3D view->Modify 3D View Walls transparency.

If you mean furniture models, if you created your own furniture, check the .mtl file for a d transparency value - see http://www.sweethome3d.com/support/foru ... hread,1196

If neither of the above, I haven't a clue. Perhaps post a screenshot so that others have more to go on.

No. In a previous version I created a backdrop with the included 'BOX'. It worked perfectly. When I upgraded to a newer version, now the background bleeds through. The darker the more obvious it is, but even when ground and sky are set to white the line between them shows through.
In 3D view I set it to solid, and set the BOX to mat and tried other textures and colors. It's as if I used the transparent BOX instead and colored it.
