Adjusting the RockPlot3D Voxel Model Transparency

Step-by-Step Summary

Follow these steps to adjust the transparency of the 3D voxel model. Reducing the opacity of the model can be helpful if you wish to see surfaces, logs, or other entities that you have appended to the 3D image. 

  1. In the Data pane of the RockPlot3D window, right-click on the name of the solid voxel model to be modified, and choose Options.
  2. Transparency (% Opaque): Type in or use the up- or down-arrow button to set the percent opacity for the model. At a setting of 100, the isosurface will be 100% opaque. At a setting of 50, the isosurface will be 50% opaque. 
  3. Click the Apply button at any time to view the effect of your transparency changes on the model. You may need to drag the Options window out of the way to view the display. You do not need to close the Options window to apply and see the changes.

! Using the Apply button tells the program to invoke the changes you have made. You cannot discard changes once they have been applied.
