218 Color, Fills, and Transparency
In WebPlus, transparency effects work very much like grayscale fills. Just like
fills...
• Transparency effects are applied from the Studio—in this case, using
the Transparency tab via solid, gradient, and bitmap galleries.
• The Transparency tab's gallery has thumbnails in shades of gray,
where the lighter portions represent more transparency. To apply
transparency, you click thumbnails or drag them onto objects.
• Most transparency effects have a path you can edit—in this case, with
the Transparency Tool.
Applying transparency
You can apply gradient and bitmap transparency from the Transparency tab to
shapes, text frames, table cells, and to any artistic, creative frame, and creative
table text (but not to HTML frame text or HTML table text).
To apply transparency with Transparency tab:
1. With your object selected, go to the Transparency tab.
2. For solid transparency, select the Solid button and pick a
thumbnail from the solid transparency gallery. The lighter thumbnails
represent more transparency (expressed as percentage Opacity).
OR:
For gradient transparency, choose the
Gradient button and pick
your thumbnail.
OR:
For bitmap transparency, choose the Bitmap button and pick a
thumbnail from a range of categories.
3. The transparency is applied to the object(s).
Alternatively, drag the desired thumbnail from the gallery to an object, and
release the mouse button.
