    Window - Not Opaque

    Why is the window on the left (bed2) different from all the other windows

    I have checked the dbx's and I can't see any difference
    Yet that window won't show as opaque ???

    I changed the outside room to a Court and it looked good to me, you had an unspecified room.

    Joe:

    tempered glass was originally off when I noticed the issue

    during my trials to solve the issue I set that but it had no effect at the time ???

    I changed the patio room for "tables" back to "unspecified and the window is still ok

    not sure why it wasn't working or why the settings weren't having an effect ???

    but it appears to be fixed

    thanks

    Lew,

    I'm not sure exactly why this happened - but I duplicated it and then fixed it but I can't seem to get it to happen again. It seems to require a specific set of circumstances and settings. OTOH, those don't seem to be consistent so .................

    I generally don't work with the Orthographic Overview - I prefer the Perspective Render Views and the windows always appear transparent in those views.
