Changing the levels in circular transparency

After applying circular transparency you can change the transparency levels of the center and outside of the circle.

To change the levels in a circular transparency

1. Select the transparent object (see Selecting objects).

2. Choose the Transparency Tool.

3. Click on either the center or the outer 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

The center handle sets the transparency at the center of the circle, the outer one sets the transparency at the edge.

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.
