I need to do a medical animation using a blue transparent man. I am using Poser 5 and Michael 3. I have changed the difuse color in the material room for all body parts to a light blue, and set transparency to 0.5 However the teeth, inner mouth, gums, nostrils etc. still look through the figure even if I set their transparency to 1.0 and difuse color to white. How can I make the inner face elements completely transparent?

double click on them, and uncheck "visible" then render :)

In the material room, select the teeth, tongue, inner mouth, gums, and nostrils (I also added eyebrows and eyelashes) and change both transparency and transparency edge to 1, and transparency falloff to 0. Make sure the specular colour of the bodyparts selected is pure black (rgb 0,0,0). This is what I did in the little anigif to show you.

Looks great raven, I'll follow your advice. Alberto
