With the use of TGA files edited in any Photo Editing Software, you can now simulate a Fence Wire Effect in Dialux via POV-Ray.
This is best when simulating nets, perimeter fence or gates.
Simply create an object with your fence dimensions > apply the inverted fence texture > calculate > then later render away.
This effect shall not appear in the post calculation so you have to use Raytrace or POV-ray later.

Hi Mike, In one of your projects, you entered the fence. I would like, if possible, explain step by step how you built the fence in the project. Thank you in advance, your help.

Like mentioned above, you need to have a an image, in this case a fence or a net where the background is white. Using Photoshop software, you need to convert the white background as transparent and then finally saving this file in TGA or PNG file formats. Once done, you can now import it in DIALux where you can apply this texture to any object in DIALux. You also need to apply percent transparency of about 70% or 80%. After calculating the scene, you can see this effect by first choosing your best camera view showing the texture, then doing Raytrace Rendering. Voila! You now have your fence/net rendered effect.

How can you import TGA or PNG files to Dialux ? I can import only .bmp; .dib; .jpg; .jpeg and .gif

I suppose this option of importing TGA or PNG is not possible anymore.
It was possible before but now maybe removed from later updates.
