Hi,

In City Engine, is there a way to make a flat polygon (foootprint) transparant so that a orthophoto will be seen throu the polygon, in the same way you can in ArcMap (2d)?

If it´s possible can you show me the code?

Best regarde Tomas

attr opacityVal = 0.5

set(material.opacity, opacityVal)

Don't forget this only affects the procedural geometry not the original shapes so you may need to toggle-off the original shapes.

If you're not talking about ArcMap, what software are you using? ArcScene, AGOL, web map, other?

Hi,

I forgot to mention that it was in City Engine.

Hi,

Tanks a lot, I didn't know that I had to toggle-off!
