@wang W2 I think the best you could do in this version of the software would be to go to the General tab for that rack, and change the 3D shape to Transparent Frame.

Accord to your method,the whole rack structure will be half transparent,but I just want to remove the braces,the remain parts stay the same.Thank you anyway.

And what is then the problem to put a shape over the invisible rack structure, which meets your desires. You put this shape in another object, which you set a location to, that both the structure and the shape fit. You will design this rack shape on your own, in the animation creator in FlexSim or by code.

Hi @wang.w2, do you still need help with this? Honestly, the easiest way to accomplish this is to upgrade to the newest version of Flexsim. It has a custom rack visualization creator that could accomplish what you are looking for.
