RobWhite Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Any suggestions as best to do a perforated mesh awning? I tried drawings a symbol, but 20,000 holes just about stalled my programme! I think my computer would shut down if I tried to create it in 3D with shadowing. Is there a premade symbol somewhere? I am hopeful of a material that would cast a reasonable but transparent shadow. Should I do something with heavy tinted glass to cast a transparent shadow? Any suggestion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 There is a Wire Mesh texture in the library. OK for rendered views, but will not display as transparent in a vector view, which I assume is what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADustin Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Hey Rob, glennw is right, your best bet is a material. If you got a picture of what you're trying to make, we might be able to point you to a material that might get the job done for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobWhite Posted May 25, 2021 Author Share Posted May 25, 2021 Thanks. Glennw response is where I thought the limit was and that is fine. I have the wire mesh material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
