Hi Michael, I am surprised. I checked all my windows and they all had glass material. I think I'll call you on Monday because I need to fully understand this since I am totally confused now. I'll take a look at the modified file to see what you have changed. Thanks for the modified version. And plea...

Hi Michael, Here is a 5 minute rendering of the sample model you sent me. I might be wrong but I remember I read your answer in response to my question regarding how long it took for any of the images on your website to render, that it only took about a minute. Again, I might have misunderstood it, ...

Hi Michael, All side of my windows are glass material. Maybe I am wrong in this case but as I mentioned I tried assigning a SU translucent material to the left big window and pus/pulled it back 1/4". So that means all the sides are translucent material. I also tried pure white material and then...

Here is the skp file. I attached this along with the images but I have no idea if you received it or not.

Hi Michael, I did a simple room with 4 windows to the front, one big rectangular window to the left and a circular window on the right view. I went to the process of thickening the glass as mentioned before and assigned the pure white color to all as you instructed. Then changed some settings for th...

Hi Michael, Thanks again for your help. Here is the way I did the glass. I first created the glass areas by using rectangle tool. the material is default material at this point. then I push/pulled each surface back couple of inches. At this point I assigned Sketchup Translucent material(the light gr...

I forgot to mention. Yes the transparency I used was 1. Now couple of questions for you. 1- What is the file size limit that you can receive. I know through my email account I can email 10 mb or through yahoo at 25 mb. But I have no idea how this works. 2- How would you do a Chrome material or Gold ...

Hi Michael, Thank you for asking those questions. Now I can find out if I did things the right way. 1- The scan setting was "Raytrace". 2- Since it was an interior shot I used "Ambient Shadows". 3- Yes, Sun is selected since the light is coming in through the windows. 4- For the ...

Hi Michael,
I guess I spoke too soon. Didn't even notice the Upload Attachment tab. Thank you for pointing it out. Here is the image.
Thanks again Michael,

Hi again,

It would have been nice if the "insert image" button would actually open a dialog box and one could select an image to insert as oppose to brackets and so forth. It seems to me that would be easier but then again I could be wrong.
Thanks,

Hi Michael, Thanks for getting back to me. The attached image was done prior to my question and I had done as you instructed with the faces of glass out and the thickness to the glass and so on. This image took almost 1/2 hour and you can still see the grains on the wall, and the glazing(windows) in...

Hi Michael, I first assigned Sketchup translucent material to my windows and changed the setting in Material editor to glass. But when I want the glass to reflect the other objects(exterior shot for instance) in it the Glass setting goes back to "0". Then I tried assigning the same window ...
