Thanks Larry, >>What happens if you do a surface/normal/object unify?>> Nothing different. Tried that first. <ugh> But I Found the problem and as you say it was NORMALS. When I cannot get something to work as I think I should..then Jane starts to Play! After playing with most of the pull downs…4 inch manual did not have in a quick way to find what to do, I found Surface/Normals/ Flip Object did the trick, To be sure that this was what did it, I only flipped a few petals..those appeared. I also found that I had to do this not only in the USER View but in the Front View..and a few groups of petals in the Top and Side view..Have NO Idea why flipping in the one view did not flip them in the other views. Still all seems to be rendering OK after that. My flowers now have all their petals :)! I started another flower as a test case. Rotated it in Top view checked the omni lights to be sure all was well. Only the center rendered. Petals gone. Flipping, Petals back. Thanks for helping………………………………….. Jane
