Aluminum metal screw heads show a green shadow through Plastic ABS

As the title states. Aluminum head screws show a green shadow as seen in the below image. This shows up in animations as well but seems to be well hidden during a render.

Regardless of appearance material selected, there should not be any green shadows that bleed through other materials.

Hi,

In design mode, this is probably caused by the translucency.

Have a look at this thread

Ya that does seem to be the issue is with the Translucency setting. Seems like a bug with the material though as I can not understand why you would only want metal material (at least in my case from what I have seen) to show through in your design.

Hi,

From my point of view, there is only one display effect in the design mode.
With a translucent material, it is understandable that there is a reflection from a metal body. In addition, the effect only occurs at certain viewing angles.
However, everything is ok in the rendering.
