this is it. the two story area on the left is supposed to be a screened in porch. i've shown the screens extending past the roof line just so that you can see them. thanks
maybe i'm confused as to what you mean by rendering. i was just trying to see what it looked like in my 3-d window. will this only show up correctly if i do a rendering, not just an axon or perspective? sorry, i'm still really new at this stuff.
FYI, OpenGL image has no partial transparency. If a materials' transmittance factor is higher than the setting in the Open GL / Options setting (see below) it will be invisible. Easy mistake to make.
