Glass & Covering

Covering

Type of window covering, such as Venetian blinds, miniblinds, and solid shade. Use Covering Amount to determine how much of the window is covered.

Lighting

Reflections

How reflective the window glass is.

Covering amount

Covering color

Interior

Daytime tint

Darken/tint the interior of the house during the daytime.

Nighttime tint

Darken/tint the interior of the house during the evening.

Add interior facade

Add a simulated interior to the house. There are two lighting variations of each interior, one for daytime and one for night. The variation will be chosen automatically based on the current time of day and the Lighting property.

Use default room size and position

Uncheck this option to enter a custom room size and/or position. This is useful when you have multiple adjacent windows and want them all to appear to be in the same room.

Horizontal offset

Shift the center of the facade left or right. Use a positive offset to shift the room left, or a negative value to shift it right. Use 0 to center the room in the window.

Vertical offset
