Chapter 7 Changing Object Properties 135
Adjusting Opacity
You can create interesting effects by making objects more opaque or less opaque.
When you put a low-opacity object on top of another object, for example, the bottom
object shows through the top object. Depending on how high or low you set the
opacity, the objects beneath can be highly visible, partly obscured, or completely
blocked from view (at 100-percent opacity). You can change opacity settings for any
visual object on the page, including drawn shapes, pictures and other image files, and
movies. Set object opacity using the Graphic Inspector.
To change an object’s opacity:
1 Select the object.
2 In the Graphic Inspector, drag the Opacity slider.
