CityEngine terrain transparency in Web Scene

[JamesSturman]

Hi,

I'm investigating the use of City Engine for 3D web visualisation of underground services like storm and waste water pipes, telecommunication cables, etc...

In my 3D web scenes I require the terrain to be transparent so that the underground services are visible to the user. I can set the terrain transparency in City Engine, but this transparency isn't transferred into any exported web scenes. Is there a setting I'm missing or is this functionality not currently supported?

I'm using CityEngine 2014.

Thanks

Not sure about 2014, but I just did a quick test in 2015.0 and it worked.

I set my alpha for the terrain layer to 0.5 in the Inspector and set it's state to "Visible" in the export options with "High Quality" textures.

Thanks Blake, upgrading to 2015.0 has solved this problem for me.
