      Hi everybody :

              Using a window frame that I created, how do I create "window screening" for it ?  The kind of screening you use on patios.
      

      Thanks garystan

        The problem with screening is that its wires are so close together that from a distance it will look solid black.

          I think you're right. I was trying to make a screen mesh component, for a window frame. And like you said, from a distance it DOES look black. Even when I adjusted the "visibility" (I can't think of the word), it didn't help. Thanks for your words of wisdom.
