    <description>&lt;P&gt;Working with transparency is an all-or-nothing affair. For instance;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Go to a realistic view and change the Model Display &amp;gt; Transparency to 1. The entire model becomes roughly 90% transparent and unreadable, making this feature essentially unusable.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Create a material that is about 10% transparent using a Cutout map. In Realistic View, it's almost invisible unless you zoom very close to it.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;P&gt;There seems to be a bug of some sort in the shaders for Realistic View that improperly over-emphasizes transparency. The desired effect would be that at 1% transparency, it would be very hard difficult to discern that materials are even transparent at all.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have no way of indicating an expanded mesh material facade in colorized elevations due to this issue.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="CivicDesignDevelopment_0-1714420804746.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1356223i6409435D18BC85A3/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="CivicDesignDevelopment_0-1714420804746.png" alt="CivicDesignDevelopment_0-1714420804746.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;As you can see, the expanded mesh corner facades at the bottom of the tower are barely visible.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="CivicDesignDevelopment_1-1714421065656.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1356226i901998B9B434586C/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="CivicDesignDevelopment_1-1714421065656.png" alt="CivicDesignDevelopment_1-1714421065656.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Interior at 1% transparent is approximately 90% transparent.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
