That is exactly the problem. I just built a simple model and got a transparency
of .999985 also.

Is there a reason for this or is it just an oversight in Virtus.

By the way, of the these windows based authoring packages I have looked at
Virtus seems by far the best (the others were Fountain ... completely
incomprehensible and counter-intuitive interface ... and Home Space Builder
which has a lovely interface but is a bit limited in the type of objects which
can be created .... i.e. just regular boxes).
