Hi, I have a very strange problem with my png images in my model. I created several components (plants) from a transparent png’s and for some uknown reason to me they are having a selective transparency almost like an x-ray. Can someone help? Thanks in advance for the help.

Edit your Style and in the second tab change the Transparency Quality.
