Hello, I'm trying to represent a crewed in porch by changing a single one window into a screen but when I apply the screen to the glass pane it becomes Luminous and no longer see through, do you know why that is or if there is a better tool for created a screened in room in Chief architect? based on the material selector it looks like this should work but I'm getting effectively getting a new light source instead, I've tried adjusting and turning off the sun but that didn't seem to make a difference.

 

Thank you in advance for any help!

Use the rainbow tool on the screen material.  Then go to Properties and make sure your Emissive is set to 0.  It might just barely have any, but set it to zero.  You can then adjust the transparency in the same tab to fit what look you are going for.  See if that helps any.

That particular Screen Material is actually a Linen from the Fabric Library, if you do a Forum search of Window Screen you should find several Materials that people have uploaded for screen porches.
