opacity

For example if you have a simple "spy glass" shape made of a circle and a rectangle and the outlines of both are partially transparent, can you stop the opacity effectively being decreased where the two shapes overlap? You can use a filter to tweak the opacity value. Say, both shapes have an opacity value of .5, then you want to make the area where both overlap to have an opacity value of .5 as well. <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="300px" height="300px"> <filter id="constantOpacity"> <feComponentTransfer> <!-- This transfer function leaves all alpha values of the unfiltered

I try to solve a problem that appears in IE8. Html is very simple: <div id="overlay"> </div> <div id="imgcontainer"> <div> <div id="source"> </div> </div> </div> When I set (using jQuery) opacity of "#source" element with "0" in IE I can see the background of #overlay, not #imgcontainer > div, but why? There is a javascript code: $(function(){ $("#source").css({ opacity: "0", }); $("#overlay").css({ width: $(window).width(), height: $(window).height(), display: "block", opacity: "0.6" }); $("#imgcontainer").css({ zIndex: 2, position: "fixed", opacity: "1", left: "0", right: "0", top: "100px",

I have a problem with IE8 where I cannot make <a> elements transparent. I've found these related SO questions but I haven't had any luck with the answers provided there: Opacity CSS not working in IE8 Opacity in web pages? I've tried " giving layout ", by using zoom: 1; , but it hasn't helped. Here is my test CSS, lifted from the example on this page : .test { background-color: #6374AB; width: 100%; color: #ffffff; zoom: 1; } .opaque1 { opacity: .5; } .opaque2 { filter: alpha(opacity=50); } .opaque3 { -ms-filter:"progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=50)"; } .opaque4 { -ms-filter:

I have picked this free bootstrap theme , and my problem is that I want to create transparent panels, but when I set opacity: 0.8; the text in the panel, of course, gets transparent, which is not something I would like to happen. I tried using this CSS code, but it looks like there is still something behind the heading and body and the panel doesn't get transparent. .panel-transparent .panel-heading{ background: rgba(122, 130, 136, 0.2)!important; } .panel-transparent .panel-body{ background: rgba(46, 51, 56, 0.2)!important; } EDIT - Sample HTML: <div class="panel panel-primary"> <div class=

body { background-image: url('cloud.png'); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6); } I tried using the above to produce a semi-transparent white background above a background-image. It doesn't work, only the background image is shown and the background-color appears to be ignored. How can I adjust the opacity of a body background image? Kevin Borders background-color is placed underneath background-image , not above it (when rendered in the web-browser). To put a semi-transparent white block over an image, you will need to place another different HTML element on top of it with background
