transparent parts

[Peter Blomberg]

What do one need to take into account regarding transparent parts?

[Rene Rechthaler]

- no physically colored parts (the few on the tracker are obsoleted)
- shortcuts with transparent elements are allowed (windows/doors)
- prints/stickers need BFC noclip (on the printed areas only)
what part do you want to do?

[Orion Pobursky]

If the part comes in transparent it may have a different design ID from the solid color version. Assuming no other changes, this number should alias the solid color version. 

Parts that have transparent version should attempt to be modeled without any internal overlap. This is a general suggestion and if it can't be avoid without significant effort or extra geometry then I think it can be overlooked.

Thanks for the pointers!

I wanted to know if there was anything besides avoiding internal overlap.
