rendering transparent
Designing a pool for my mom inlaw, i have come across something odd. In 3d view i can adjust the water with "modify 3d view" "Walls transparency" And the transparency is fine.

Re: rendering transparent
Is it me, or is there a bug in the program.
Neither, I suspect. The 3D view walls transparency does not actually make the walls transparent (walls cannot be transparent in SH3D), it is only a design tool to make it easier to see what you are doing (see recent blog: How to show interior parts hidden by walls).
Not sure what you (well, your mother in law) wish(es) to achieve, but you can import a box as a window and apply a transparent texture. See also thread 2954 with attachments.
