Blender How To: Viewport Transparency

Hello, in this quick tip video I show you this super easy method to make objects transparent in the viewport, I've seen a lot of people asking for this in help groups so thought I'd share it here. This is especially useful when you're using background reference image to model with and you don't want them obstructing the view.

If doesn't work = Material Properties - Open the settings tab - in Blend Mode choose Alpha Blend - To make it transparent toggle Base Colour and use the Alpha selection.

Still works since it has nothing to do with Principle BSDF. Its the "Viewport Display" setting at the bottom. prinziple BSDF is always for Eevee or cylces
