So.. I've been trying to make a glass window thing that goes over some cash registers so I had to use union but the parts that touch always look white and you can tell that they aren't connected :/ Anyway to fix this?

Transparent blocks aren't working?
I don't think bricks of different transparencies are supported by Union

Make it a decal and link us.

I am not sure that transparency works in Union, as mentioned before. Have you tried cframing it?

I still can't see it.

Cframing is when you put one brick through another brick. If you ever went to old Fort Celeste (A RAT fort) You could see that parts of the walls occasionally "flashed". They looked weird and maybe changed to a slightly different white, but then went back again. That's because a brick was inside of a brick.

To cframe simply in Roblox Studio without using scripting you can go up to the top into the MODEL tab and locate the Collisions button. It's almost right underneath the tab heading. Make sure that isn't outlined in gray. Set two bricks perpendicular to each other and resize one brick towards the other using the scale option. You should find that the brick goes through the other. This is cframing.

The problem is that Unions don't always get rid of the lines between Parts. Sometimes they don't, other times they do.
It's a pain. ROBLOX is aware of it (I brought it up on the RBXDev site) and I was told by Adamintygum that 'Basically the algorithm for the Unions is failing'. He suggested building the Union larger scale and shrinking it.

One thing I do is union the parts separately, it makes it look a bit better. That might work but I don't really understand your problem.
