Alpha in Picture

Targets iOS
1

I have a picture.
Created as new picture (width,height)

Unlike desktop, it has no .mask property
However it does have an .applyMask method

Adding a grey mask does not make the picture semitransparent when drawing it.

How can I paint this picture slightly see-through?

Hi Jeff,

set g.Transparency before you paint the picture.

Thanks.
Thats an odd paradigm shift after using masks and alpha channels for years, but it works.

I had already kinda ‘solved’ it by drawing the picture then drawing a filled rectangle of semi-transparent white over the top, but this is simpler.
