Re: Roof with transparent material

Maurizio,

Look here.
Files with "transp" in the filename are boxes with transparency in different colours.

Re: Roof with transparent material

Take a look at this tutorial:

http://www.sweethome3d.com/slopingCeilingGuide.pdf

In rough, you have to compose (or re-import) the object vertically, give the inclination as a rotation over Z axis (which is the only allowed in the plan editing), then export the rotated object and re-import it again rotating it so it's horizontal again.

I hope the text Hold the Shift key down while clicking on an arrow to rotate the model at smaller steps that is shown at the second step of the import wizard would have been helpful enough. sad

Rotation in the 3D space around 3 axes is never easy in all 3D software! wink
