Yes.
panel.getProperties().edit().setInteger(“i.alpha”,value).commit();

Thanx!
ok, noticed that it doesn’t play well with loops and rapid changes… :/
trying to do a fade effect when scrolling…
ehh, I can live without it 🙂
Thanx again!

< ![CDATA[
fade would be great, but i don’t think it’s possible atm

< ![CDATA[
Possible, but vveerryy slow due to PropertySet involved. Wished this could be charged directly.

It is possible to reduce the time taken by the property change, but translucent item rendering will remain rather slow.

Pierre Hébert Well, I tried to combine with slide (Sidebar fading in), so it needs to render nevertheless. Or does it really make such a difference? Will try setting panel statically to semi-transparent and see how much the impact is.

Transparency is awfully slow

< ![CDATA[
Pierre Hébert Nope, semi-transparent sidebar scrolls in and out the same speed. So the propertyset commit is the main delaying factor.

So you get a fast processor 😉

I think Pierre Hébert means not the Property set change is the problem, but rendering the panel in the new transparency takes time. If you have a static transparency it has to be rendered once, but each time you change the transparency it has to be rendered again.
Pierre Hébert what about a method like fade(fromTransparency,toTransparency,duration);

I have my whole desktop set to about 200 transparency and it’s all smooth

Pierre Hébert Good old Nexus 4, not top notch, not overclocked, but fast enough.

Lukas Morawietz ready to use methods to trigger animations is a good idea.

Thanx Pierre Hébert .. in latest update ‘LLX v10.4b1’ I can fade alpha in a loop without lag… 🙂
