Sometimes when I import an object (.obi ) a texture or material shows up in Vue as transparent.  Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong ? The same object shows up in other 3d software correctly. Poser 7 , etc. Thanks.

How does it render? I can imagine it is just an OpenGL thing. But it needs a bit more information to judge.

It renders total transparency. 100%.

Does the material has indede some transparency in it? Most of the times, liquids or glasses are 100% transparent when imported in Vue, because the obj format doesn't take index of refraction into account.
