bainoParticipantIs there a way to create a breeze block wall (like shown)with a transparent background?
I have tried with a specific pink colour (can’t remember it now) that is supposed to create transparency but never got it to work.

FynrDzynrParticipantJust don’t try to search for “transparent”!
but maybe Louisa should . . . .
I presume you’re just using a jpg or gif?
Set the openings to Magenta but I can’t remember the RGB, sry2019-03-06 at 09:53 #8832
gowsicanParticipantthere isn’t one in the envisioneer catalog but you can make it in Sketch Up then import it. You can also find a breeze wall in the Sketch Up 3D warehouse where you can then customize it then import that.

After changing the openinigs to the transparent magenta colour, save as a .BMP or .PNG
The transparent RGB magenta colour code is 255,0, 255.

2019-03-08 at 01:16 #8777bainoParticipantI successfully used the sketchup warehouse method. Thanks everyone for your input. When the need arises again I’ll try the magenta method. I couldn’t get it to work for me last time

I just right clicked and added new material folder for ‘landscape’ , then added bmp. Then assigned and named the new materail , checking box.

Download it. Put it in your materials folder. I have one on second hard drive. Add it to your materials options. I made new folder named Landscape. Actually jackLandscape. Made sure check box was done. And it is now set for assigning to any project.
