Bowen Island has power, again, then?<BR /> I'm not sure, but the white windows on the elevation view are more exposed to light than the subordinate window behind the porch.<BR /> If this ins't a glitch of some kind, I think it is reflected light.<BR /> <BR /> Just to experiment, change your glass reflectivity - reduvce mirror factor and specular factors to 0.<BR /> <BR /> <BR /> BTW: Use a little "Undersun™" to eliminate those black soffits unless they are a new innovation in home design.

Attached is elevation rendering - notice the window on the main floor left is transparent. Also attached is a perspective rendering with the same settings and all the windows are transparent. I have downloaded and installed all updates. Any and all suggestions welcome. I'm a old user of ArchiCAD (in every sense) but very new to 10.</T></DIV><BR /><IMG src="http://community.graphisoft.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/72273iA1538AEC9B8DA2FA/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" border="0" alt="Window_Problem.JPG" title="Window_Problem.JPG" /> Thu, 11 May 2023 10:28:51 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/Lightworks-windows-colour-or-background-in-ArchiCAD-10/m-p/48173#M16638 Anonymous 2023-05-11T10:28:51Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/Lightworks-windows-colour-or-background-in-ArchiCAD-10/m-p/48174#M16639 Hello Tim!

I tried that and it made no difference. I guess ground floor windows should have rendered properly if it was a reflection issue as they are under a deck. Anyway, I guess it's a glitch! Do I have to reload the full meal deal (ArchiCAD 10) or can you suggest specific elements to reload? And yes, Bowen does have power, again, and I was only without phones for 2 weeks.
