Space Tool Graphic Attributes

[LauraCB]

Hi there,

 

Wondering if there is a way to control the opacity of a space label independently to the fill colour of the space tool? I have tried setting the label to a different class than the space but this had no effect.

 

Thanks

yes, highlight the space object, then in the info box click on settings, then navigate to graphic attributes.

Yes but the if I change the opacity of the fill then the text in the space label is also affected. I am trying to have a space label with 50% opacity but the text still showing as 100 % to be readable. Is this possible? When I change the graphic attributes it has no option for the label

you are right, it's a bug, I will report it to the tech.  I formatted my space tool/object in VW2018, just checked and it works in 2018, then you can reuse the same space object in 2019 or 2020 but when formatting it in settings it reverts to opaque.

if you don't have 2018 you can use attached

Ah ok brilliant thanks for the file link. Kinda glad it is a glitch as I was going in circles trying to figure out why I was being blind!
