Window treatment pull string

[DesignerAshleyB]

Hi all. I can't figure out how to hide the pull string for these shades. I'm using X15. Thanks!

It's in the Core Catalog> Pleated Blinds> Pulled (tight). I made a copy to my user catalog & opened the object & I don't think I can remove the string. I try making the material clear glass & unchecking Auto Edge Lines, but it still shows an outline of it.

Do you want to hide them or just make them fit the

window opening? If you apply the window treatments

from inside the "Window Specification" DBX the

pulls will resize to fit the dimensions of the window.

 

It looks like you applied them directly from the core

library to the window.

 

Depending on the view type you use you can hide

the pulls by changing their material type to "opening

(no material)". They will be hidden in Standard and

Physically Based views but will still show in Vector

and line views.

You have them applied to the window as curtains, apply them as blinds. The three windows I applied as blinds, the single you have as curtains.

But why the long overhang of the rods?

@ Garybills- Thank you, I didn't realize that. That solves it.

 

@ Rich_Winsor- They don't show in perspective view, but do in vector.

 

@ GeneDavis- I'm pretty new to Chief, don't know a lot of the ins & outs. I couldn't find a way to reduce the size of the rod without also reducing the blind.
