Hi @salma32554452v8u4,

When you're talking about the "front side" I guess you're talking about the reflection on your object? There are two things to know. First, the reflection on the 2D view is based on the reflection in the 3D view. As instance, if you're rotating the environment map (SHIFT + RMB) you'll see that it also affects the 2D view. Therefore, depending on the HDRI map you're using, the dark parts in your reflections could simply be the floor of the environment.

The second thing is there are limitations to the reflections in 2D view. If you take a single face cube as instance, you'll see that the reflections are blurry/undefined and it's due to the viewer limitation. In your situation, I don't think that's the issue.

That being said, what's your problem exactly and what are you trying to do? The solution could be somewhere else.

Let me know.
