label /emboss is appearing on both sides of glass/ transparent material
Hey Dave, I have another one for you :D. This is a problem I encounter a lot with applying labels to glass/transparent materials. No matter the projection I use (I usually go with flat), or whether I set it to both sides or front side, I still get a reflected label, as you can see below.
Do you have a quick tip on how to resolve this?

Hi Jesse, flat projection projects straight through your object which is why it appears in reverse on the back. The easiest way to fix this is to select only the faces you want the label to appear on and using a selection tag limit the projection to just that area. We actually go through this exact problem in this lesson: https://cgshortcuts.com/courses/the-ultimate-redshift-materials-guide/lessons/stickers-or-decals-in-redshift
You could also just UV unwrap your object rather than projecting.
