CGS Solids with transparency and Solid Edges


cberg

Question

In many ways, Vectorworks tries to look and feel like Sketchup, but then it's so weirdly illogical at times. 

 

I've always wondered what technical issues prevent CGS Solids/Extrudes from receiving color and transparency like the image shown below. 

 

To generate this image in a shaded model space, I have to assign a texture with the correct color and opacity, and then duplicate the object and turn off the fills to show edges.  Curious as to why.
