The grid opacity property is used to control the opacity or transparency of a layout block. Adjusting the opacity of a block also affects the opacity of all associated block items.
?> When discussing grid layouts content-within-blocks are referred to as block items.
The following basic syntax is used to control the opacity of a layout block:
[drag=width height, drop=x y, opacity=level]
Where the level option on the opacity= property can take any value from 0.0 to 1.0. A layout block with an opacity value of 0.0 is invisible.
The following sample slide screenshot demonstrates opacity controls activated on sample blocks:
The first sample block on this slide activates opacity=0.3 to create an subtle yet eye-catching code themed background for the slide. The second sample block activates opacity=0.6 to create a semi-transparent blue background. The final sample block overlays the blue background to deliver the final and all important message...GitPitch Rocks!
