when assigning a material for instance a grill to a rectangle. is there a way of making a colour transparent so you only see the metal part of the grill?

You need to use a png with a transparent background like the attached

it seems to work on sketchup but making black blobs on enscape window?

Weird.
It works ok for me here with a transparent PNG from the sketchup materials (chain link fencing)
Does it show a texture under the transparency area of the enscape material editor ? (cutout)
Maybe just go an check all your graphics drivers are upto date.

Ill have another go...is your fence 3d? not just a flat face?
It's a flat material (I extruded it into a box also, to check it worked)
It's one of the built in SketchUp Materials
