I have tried using the second method you describe but can't see how to remove the texture. The texture box is empty although the colour selection shows a series of numbers. The name field shows 'cleanup'. I have changed the transparency to 90% but the wall still shows as solid.

A glass material was dragged from the materials catalogue onto the wall. Look in Materials /AEC folder. There are different glass types to give you different levels of wall transparency. To remove the transparency drag the Cleanup material onto the wall.

Note however, that using this method, all walls on that layer will become transparent. To apply a material to an individual wall, select the wall in a 3D view, then right click on it to activate it's Properties. Then in the dialogs General tab, select Material, then 3D view tab. Remove Texture and change Transparency to 90%. This change will then affect only the selected wall.

Remember also that you can also hide walls in the 3D View, from the visibility options for the view.

Your example for a bathroom at www.visualbuilding.co.uk/bathroom-designers shows the walls as transparent in the 3D view i.e. the outline can be seen but it is possible to see through them into the room. How is this achieved please? The properties menu in the 3D view has options for wire frame, sketch etc but not this one.
