When I use quick smoke to create a smoke simulation everything works fine,

but when I create a box and make it a domain, the smoke simulation is not visible in the render due to visible domain?

What's causing this?

    $\begingroup$ Please make your question clearer. Please show the settings for the manual domain. A domain can remain a box before the simulation starts. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 27, 2018 at 7:14
  • $\begingroup$ In the past there was problem with having more than one domain with a bake. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 27, 2018 at 7:15
  • $\begingroup$ Only one domain in the scene at a time, domain settings default... when I make a box a domain manually it just doesn't show the smoke in the render $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 27, 2018 at 7:22

    $\begingroup$ You have not yet shown your settings. Screen Capture. You might even have an extra box. Did you Bake? $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 27, 2018 at 7:24

    $\begingroup$ What material have you assigned to the domain? Is it a volumetric or just a surface shader? The Quick Smoke does more than just create the domain - it also assigns a volumetric material to it. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 27, 2018 at 8:01

That's because the default material for the domain is still enabled enter image description here so you see on that image that it doesn't workenter image description here so you have to make a random image and apply quick smoke on it and then delete it and then select the domain again and choose the smoke domain material enter image description here and then it works.enter image description here
