It includes refraction, reflection and illumination through the transparent surface.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://wiki.renderplus.com/images/thumb/2/21/Bowl-caustic-100.jpg/400px-Bowl-caustic-100.jpg&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;232&quot; src=&quot;http://wiki.renderplus.com/images/thumb/2/21/Bowl-caustic-100.jpg/400px-Bowl-caustic-100.jpg&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
You can edit the transparency settings with a slider-bar, change the 
Index of Refraction , or add other special effects such as Translucency 
and Caustics&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
This means that the IRender settings are stored in the SketchUp  model,  so you do not have to make changes if you reload the model, or  for  subsequent renderings of the same model.&lt;br /&gt;

Rendering settings and rendering functions are all available from a SketchUp toolbar.&lt;br /&gt;
