j0nncp1 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I am using Home Designer Architectural 2017 version on Mac I would like to figure out how to make all windows more opaque and tinting to show a more realistic 3D view of my project. I've tried many ways to do this, but it always keep showing the glass as see-thru/clear. I tried making a new material, as well as using this "Adjust Material" selector, but can not get any texture/material or transparency to work. See image linked thanks for any advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j0nncp1 Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 Thank you Jo_Ann for your advice. After reviewing the link and making a copy, its still did not work for the windows, but i tried tinting a door and noticed that it worked the door, so i figured out that since i removed ALL the sashes to 0" on the windows to make them look more industrial, they were not responding when i tried to tint/color them, so now i went back and added a 1" sash to them, and they now are able to be colored as i desire, much appreciated, and glad i can now go forward with my renderings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robborito Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 So the lesson here is - copy and amend the copy and not the original? Is that it? This means re-assignin the material in the defaults? Correct? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
