Not sure if this is the right place for this question, but here goes.....

I have recently upgraded to Revit 2013, whenever I'm using the realistic view it shows anything that has a transparent material seems to show through other materials...... very frustrating.  See attached picture to see what I mean - floating light fixtures and windows.

I haven't tried to do a walkthrough yet but assume that they will still be there in the walkthrough, which would just look extremely wierd to someone else (I'm used to ignoring them now).

I know that it is not just my version, because all the stuff on youtube that I've looked up also has it on 2013 version.

Does anyone know any way of fixing it, or do I just have to continue to ignore it??

Thanks

Heidi

ok, thanks.

You make it sounds easy enough......  software or hardware issue (sorry not great with the tech stuff)  It's a new laptop - only about 2-3mths old.  What sort of update do I need to do?

I appreciate your help, thanks heaps.
