      My target usage for all of my models requires that I use a single png texture file. Many require an Alpha channel for a portion of the model. This can require days to weeks of trial and error. There has to be a simple solution.

      The attached file is a box with a window. Half of the window is 100% Alpha (that works), half is 50% (that does not work.)

          Thanks for taking the time to try and help. I oversimplified the example. I will UL a better example this evening.
