Thx for hunting this down in a rational manner.

It drives me nuts that if you submit the problem with changing the transparency for a part, face, or body, and the same thing happening (part turns gray as soon as the transparency slider moves), they just look you in the eye and describe exactly what is happening and tell you it isn't a bug.

I've reported this several times and keep getting the same response, which is both encouraging and disheartening. Its encouraging because if nothing else, they are consistent. It's discouraging because they are consistently wrong.

One of the biggest shortcomings of tech support in general is that they fail to see things from a users perspective. (Too busy with the goal keeper role - deflecting criticism). There may be some internal document somewhere that defines that when changing transparency, color should automatically be changed as well, but in that case the bug is in the internal document.

In 2006 SP3.4 clicking back from wireframe to shaded often causes the part to go "invisible" on me.

I have to reset to another material to see it.

First time I saw it I thought I lost my whole model.
