Transparency it a forth channel besides RGB. There exist nothing like a "transparency of a color". Each value of a pixel consists of four parts: Red, Green, Blue and transparency, each in the range of 0 to 255. I do not really understand, which result you want to get. Your attachment shows some changes in UI, but do not explain, what the resulting gradient should look like. Kind regards Regina
