Glass Material stays clear, won't accept color

Using the new Dimension, but not a newbie with this app - giving the outer wine bottle glass a color green, but it stays clear. It's already called 'glass material', but when I click on the new glass material and select green, nothing happens to change it - in the old version, it would take whatever color you selected. Screenshot attached showing green selection that doesn't work. Thanks for any solution/suggestion.

You need to change Interior properties  and use Scattering properties for customizing glass color. There is help reference about these properties of materials for SBSAR materials. Adobe Standard Material | Substance 3D Sampler

Ares, thank you so much!! I found the scattering option - and that worked. I'll need to experiment with the shades of green. Are there any video tutorials for Dimension on these new options? I have not found any. Thanks again. ;-D

Te most effective training resources for now is Learn | Adobe (for Stager)  and Learn | Adobe (PBR guide 1&2). Why Stager? because new Dn is updated his engine and now using Stager render engine. PBR guide is a full guide about physics of PBR materials. That is the core document about Substance materials. Please sign to Substance youtube where you will be able to find many interesting videos.
