Hi, When I do windows I always use two sheets of glass in the window to get the refraction right. This works well. But when two windows are overlapping, the bits of glass that are overlapped turns opaque. Any ideas on how to fix this? Cheers, /M

What do you want to do when you say mapping? One way is to explode all boxes, manually select all sides that share the same property / mapping, then group those and apply the mapping. There are numerous other ways to do this as well, but when you have already done the boxes you have limited your options. If you start again, I'd do one box with proper mapping, then copy this box and change shape and size. If you put all sides that has a different mapping on different sub layers, you can easily change mapping when you are finished by changing the properties of the sub layer for each mapping.

Gurus, I am using V-ray for Rhino. On previous models I have made, I only needed to change the camera settings when I went from an outside render (regardless of camera position and distance to object) to an indoors render. In my new model, as soon as I move the camera I have to readjust the camera settings to maintain the lighting, i.e. the closer I place the camera to the object, the darker the render gets. When I am fairly close, the render gets completely black and I need to use fantasy numbers on the camera to get natural light. Changing the camera settings resolves the issue, but previously I did not have to do this and it is proving cumbersome when doing large numbers of renderings from various angles and distances. I have a feeling I am missing something trivial but I just cant find it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance! Cheers, /M
