i think we have a translation issue

 

when you export a file you can use; Dn, Fbx, Obj, Glb for the models Psd, Jpeg, CClibrary or Png for the textures... the idea is you save the model in its [unrendored state] for reuse later

 

when you rendor the image then you get a Psd or Png... and at that point you can't end up with a transparent glass because Adobe Dimensioin uses Apple metal drivers which can't rendor transparency. if you have one of the early [Nvida] builds of Dimension yes transparency is a thing but placing transparent pixels into Dimension now will rendor those missing pixels as black or white, in the same way converting blank Png pixels to Jpeg does

 

you want to save a glass model for reuse later = doable

you want to rendor glass transparent = impossible after build 2 of Dimension

when you made this glass model, what type of texture image did you use; transparent Png, vectors or Jpg?
