capitaldesigns Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I am working on a TI project. We are adding a 36" high pony wall with an artistic etched glass panel on top. The glass panels will be lighted from below and inside the pony wall. The pony wall will be 8" thick with a cherry wood cap. There will be a slot cut into the wood cap where the glass panels will be placed. How do I show light lights inside the pony wall and facing upward ? Or is there another way to get the glass panels to appear to be light from below in the 3D model ? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis_Gavin Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 If you don't need an actual wall you can use a box with an open top sized as needed. Place a polyline solid with a slot cut in it and a light source from below spot light set to 90 degrees versus -90. you can use 3D light source if you don't care about seeing a symbol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capitaldesigns Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 Thanks William & Dennis, William, the picture you sent is what we are looking to do. The only difference is the wall will be longer and the glass panel will encompass three pieces of glass and each one free formed with slightly different colors and textures. Did you add a light source inside of the wall to achieve the illuminated look ? Dennis, I'm going to try your suggestion in a few minutes.

Dennis_Gavin Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Mike - there are a couple of ways to accomplish this depending on what your needs are. You could also make the pony wall a polyline solid with a hole in it and a cap polyline solid with a matching hole in it and 3 polyline solids for the glass panels.
