I am designing a kiosk in AutoCAD2008 3D. I would like to show the plexiglass window panels as transparent. As soon as I change the material using the Global Map, the entire project turns transparent, even though I only selected the panels. I made them with the solid box command. Is there something I am missing?

 

Thanks in advance!:unsure:

How did you attach your materials?

Good Morning! Happy Friday!

Thank you for responding - I simply drew solids from the Dashboard.

Don't use the first material slot. That is a Global Material and will be applied to all objects in your scene. You should leave that material slot alone and create a new material, make that your glass material and apply that to your windows.

Fabulous! That worked - thank you very much!
