Interior shutters - can't close

[VAsher]

Hi Everybody,
Using HD Pro 2014
I have interior shutters that I want closed so that you can see them on the exterior view.
Is this possible?

I doubt there's a way to close existing shutters, although in my designs you CAN see them in the exterior view (just make sure they're sized right - there seems to be some screwy code in the shutter resizing area, from my experience). If you really want closed shutters, and don't mind them looking that way from the inside, you might try replacing the glass with a horizontal pattern simulating shutters.

Echoing rraisley, if you don't mind them showing closed in the interior elevation, create a new material from a copy of a shutter style you wish to emulate, (copy/paste etc). I made an example for you, using a thin soffit sized to the window, then apply my shutter image as the material.
