This specialised component is designed to represent glass-type materials in a simplified way. It is meant to be used on flat objects (e.g. panes of glass in a window) where refraction effects are not important. Unlike other transparent/translucent components, ThinwallTransparent can safely be applied to objects modelled as 2D planes with no thickness. This component gives an ideal (non-glossy) mirror reflection and shows light transmitted from behind. The transmitted light is not refracted. The strength of the mirror reflection is controlled by the index of refraction - the higher the IOR, the stronger the reflection becomes (and the less light is transmitted from behind).
A color tint that will be applied to both reflections and transmitted light. This can be a single color value or a texture map.
