Changing the levels in linear transparency
After applying linear transparency you can change the transparency levels of the start and end of the transparency.
To change the levels in a linear transparency
1. Select the transparent object (see Selecting objects).
2. Choose the Transparency Tool.
3. Click on a transparency handle to select it.
4. Move the Transparency slider on the Transparency Tool Infobar. Or for precise control, type into the text box to the right.
Tips
If neither handle is selected, moving the slider applies a flat transparency to the object.
If you have several objects selected, you can select all fill handles of a particular type (for example all the center handles) by CTRL+Shift-clicking on one of the handles. Use Shift-click to deselect a handle or select an unselected handle.
