Color, Fills, and Transparency 217
Setting transparency
Transparency effects are great for highlights, shading and shadows, and
simulating "rendered" realism. They can make the critical difference between
flat-looking illustrations and images with depth and snap. WebPlus fully
supports variable transparency and lets you apply solid, gradient, or bitmap
transparencies easily.
Transparencies work rather like fills that use "disappearing ink" instead of color.
The more transparency in a particular spot, the more "disappearing" takes place
there, and the more the object(s) underneath show through. Just as a gradient fill
can vary from light to dark, a transparency can vary from more to less, i.e. from
clear to opaque, as in the illustration:
