Translucency from PDMS to Navisworks

 
Parents
  • Hi all.

    I make rvm-files from PDMS so I can import them in Navisworks. This works like it's supposed to.

    Although, I have some wall that I would like to make transparrant so I can see through them from the outside. In PDMS you can set the translucency to 50% and then you can see through them. I have tried to write the same thing when I export from PDMS to my rvm-file, but it fails. I have also tried to search the forum, but nothing helps.


    I have tried this, but this doesn't export anything:

    repre lev 6
    repre lev pipe 6
    repre lev nozz 6
    repre lev struc 6
    export system /expdri.so
    export file /testexport.rvm
    export filenote ''
    export autocolour /HELP_GROUND colour 239 Transl 50 Edges On
    export autocolour /UNIT-1_ROOF colour 30 transl 30
    export holes on
    export finish


    If I remove autocolour it gives me an error on the transl-thing.

    Can someone please tell me how to make walls that I can see through, without having to go into Navisworks and fix it?

    Thanks :-)
