transparency

Post by debenriver »

Hi Eric

One thing I have found is that if you give a texture transparency (say 50%) and then do a save, then close, when you re-open the file, transparency has reverted to 100%.

Same applies to hatches.

A way around this is to convert the texture or hatch to lines, then apply transparency, then group, then save, but this seems to be pretty memory intensive.

On earlier versions I thought you could simply ungroup textures and hatches, but maybe I am mistaken?

Other attributes (like line weight) are saved OK and are retained on reopening.

Ordinary fills and lines are fine and retain transparency.

Cheers - George
