There are two types of transparency: uniform transparency and
gradient transparency. To obtain uniform transparency, select
Transparency and then select the percentage of transparency
required. For a gradient transparency (so that the area becomes
gradually transparent) select Gradient and then set the parameters of
the gradient. You can refer to Table 3 on page 146 for a description of
most of the settings. In the Transparency tab, specify the Start value
and the End value for the transparency gradient. 0% is fully opaque,
100% means fully transparent.
An example of gradient transparency is shown in Figure 115.
More information on gradient transparency, including an example of
combining color gradient with gradient transparency, can be found in
“Advanced gradient controls” on page 153.

As discussed in “Creating gradients” on page 144 and “Transparency
formatting” on page 152, gradient properties can be configured using
the parameters in Table 3 on page 146.
Impress also provides a graphical interface for modifying the gradient
parameters using only the mouse. To use these tools, click on the
Transparency icon or the Gradient icon in the Mode toolbar
shown in Figure 116.
