Hi there, I am trying to figure out how to make a shape slightly transparent, so that I can see through it. I have created a building wall but would love to make it slightly transparent to make it easier for my simulation goal.
I would appfreciate anyones assistance :)
Thanks, regards Juan
David, I tried that and it works. Very simple.
However, it's not transparent for everything and I can't see my products or my operators !
I'll try something else..
The transparent objects need to be drawn after the other objects if you want to be able to see the other objects through them.
You can control the order of the drawing by changing the objects' ranks in the tree view. Objects at the top of the tree will be drawn last.
Move your transparent objects to the top of the tree.
There isn't a direct method, which you can activate in Flexsim by setting a option. You have to prepare the shape files. The level of transparency is set by the transparency of your shape picture in png-file. Or you use the fbx 3D data type which handle transparency inside the data structure. Please look for "preparing a 3D file", too.
