So, I discovered this back in very early LBP1 - I even made a level about it, but only about 5 people played it, and I deleted the level(Both from online and my moon) a few weeks later. So, since I'm currently playing a lot of LBP, I've decided to reveal my secret(Although, I never planned on it being a secret, I was just too lazy to show anyone else): Step 1: Get ANY Material(It seriously doesn't matter what material), then draw a line with it(Make it very long. I usually make it around 10 Small Grids or more long). I recommend doing it in Small Grid mode. Step 2: Get out your Popit Cursor and use it to copy this line. Then, place three copies in specific places so that you make a square(Very easy to do in Grid Mode). Step 3: Shrink the square down very small using the Popit Cursor. Don't just stop when it goes invisible though, go a bit farther at least, or it will randomly re-appear(Works best for me when shrunk to smallest Small Grid size). So, you should now have an invisible material selected. You can copy it, which then allows you to draw with it, you can make it have a lot of curves and turns and everything. Of course, the larger the line you make in Step 1(To a point), the better it will work. I've used this to make invisible walls, barriers, force fields, bounding boxes, and all sorts of other things since early LBP1, and I hope it proves just as useful for all you guys as it has for me.

L-I-M-I showed me something similar a few months ago, but he wasn't precise with his box or anything in step 2. It is also worthy to point out that in my experience with his invisible cardboard, this "invisible" material still leaves a shadow. I think the main use for me, would be turning stairways into ramps so that players don't have to annoyingly jump up stairways. But I could see other uses, you could make a "paint your way" level that doesn't have to be dark.

It has more uses than you'd think. And you can be very imprecise when making it if you like(For a little while after I originally discovered this, I used to go into no-grid mode, and just draw a big box with the material), although if you're more exact, I find it works a lot better. Anyway, this is much better than just getting out Dark Matter in no-grid and using it at its smallest size, since with this, it can be any material(Which makes it more thermo-friendly, since no one really uses Dark Matter anymore), and you can put details into it, as I say in the Thread Name.

It has more uses than you'd think. Anyway, this is much better than just getting out Dark Matter ***(or Rubber) in no-grid and using it at its smallest size, since with this, it can be any material(Which makes it more thermo-friendly, since no one really uses Dark Matter anymore), and you can put details into it, as I say in the Thread Name. Rubber is similar to Dark Matter as it is also affected by the same thing as Dark Matter, but nobody (except maybe my old levels) used that for an invisible material.
