Congratulations to the VectorWorks team for the adding a translucency function to layers in a past version and more recently to the Windows version. My recommendation is that instead of having to leave the view to set the translucency and then go back to see how it turned out, then do it again it necessary, I would prefer that the translucency be adjusted by a floating slider control that shows a realtime display of the layer as the slider is moved. This is how it is done in Google Earth and in the application FracSIS by Fractal Technologies http://www.fractaltechnologies.com. I realize that this may be more intensive for the processor for this realtime adjustment with visualization but I feel the VectorWorks programmers are talented enough to figure this out without a significant slowdown in performance as others have.
