Yep. Actually the glass solid is filleted. I'm affraid that changing the material won't satisfy me. I also have to explode the solid to be able to do that,no?

<p>Still very likely to be total internal reflection. The edges of tables are notorious for this. If it's what I think it is, it's working like a fiber-optic cable where the light can't escape. If you can't manage to get it out of there by adding extra bounces, then post-processing may be the only option.</p>

<p>It can, of course, be some other problem.</p>

Turning up the refractive bounces doesn't change anything but i saw some strange behaviour in the drawing. I'll check earlier backups to see if the drawing file could be corrupted.

<p>Ah, that makes some more sense. Turning up the refractive bounces may help (try 16?). You've got some total internal reflection going on.</p>

<p>You shouldn't get any alpha for this in the very latest build so the cheat won't work anymore (> 271, I think).</p>

<p>By alpha compositing through windows I mean the ability to see a color background (like a photo) behind a window with glass in it. By default, nXt for AutoCAD is set up to provide alpha channel for this. You lose that ability when you check the switch.</p>
