I’d like to create an easier mechanism than engaging the inspector to making notes translucent, but a search for the phrase on the aTbRef doc turns up nothing. What’s the name of this attribute/setting and what sort of values does it take?
There are 9 opacity-related attributes in addition to $Opacity. Some such as $TitleOpacity and $SubtitleOpacity are independent of $Opacity. However, the if higher than the value of $Opacity, the latter value is used when drawing the note.
So, you may need to experiment a little depending on your exact need. Suffice it to say, the variations above arose out of user testing where it became apparent that a one-size-affects-all opacity setting was not optimal.
Indeed. Frustratingly, we are trying to just do the ‘obvious’ task at hand. But, my remembrance is that in different contexts you need a slightly different mix of transparent objects: the ‘body’, the title and/or subtitle, and the border.
Once you know the transparent elements you want a stamp is probably the easiest solution to implement.
