wind/sunscreen

[Dune]

Something I am doing for a client (WIP). Reducing opacity lets more light fall through objects; handy for the sun/windscreens (opacity@0.501). I still have to adjust the parasols.
But guys; keep in mind that this will be a temporary thing.

Wow, I didn't know that. Cool.
What do you mean by temporary thing?

[Kadri]

That looks sweet.

Eventually, opacity will be greyscale, not pure black or white, so reducing opacity to 0.501 will then be 50.1% grey, making the object half opaque. Now the sunscreen remains totally visible, while only the light passing through is reduced.

Ah, I see. Thanks, Ulco.

Very nice island, Ulco!
And very interesting new knowledge

News to me as well but I still dream at night of greyscale control of transparency...eventually is I guess, better than never....
