Transparency on Elements

Question: Is there a way to
adjust the transparency, say 50%, when I place Shape
/ Smartline or Create Region? Also, is it possible
to print it out just as is without tweaking the pentable
or anything?
Answer: If you are looking for filled
shapes displaying on your screen with transparency, it is best to use a pen table with a RIP driver
or use MicroStation V8 XM Edition, which does support
transparency on elements.
Another option is to use a Raster
image file of the color desired. Clip Bound &
Mask to the desired area. Make the Raster image transparent
and then plot.
