Object materials visualization problems

Hello,

I'm having a trouble with a parapet not showing properly on 3D windows and Enscape rendering too.

After some door creations and texture importing in a working file, a parapet I've made stopped showing properly: It was made of steel, but appears semi-transparent now. As you can see on picture (archicad 3D windows and enscape rendering window) it also doesn't properly connect on the edge:

I'm pretty sure is a library problem, because on a brand new file it works, as you can see:

I can't understand how to fix. I tried to refresh libraries...but nothing changed.

Somebody can help?

 

Operating system used: Windows

Check your Model View Option settings for railings.

I would say the 3D/elevation settings is not set to "Full".

I've found this option on "Door" settings, but not on "railings" setting
