--- Comment #8 from Regina Henschel <[email protected]> --- The background of the cell is currently written as <loext:graphic-properties> element. You can add a draw:opacity attribute there. Then this opacity is rendered in LibreOffice in edit and in presentation mode and preserved on saving. So a semi-transparent cell background only needs implementing a UI. In ODF 1.4 it will be included as <style:background-fill> element. "Border" is more difficult because it is written as fo:border attribute. Such fo:border attribute is a string with structure "9pt solid #0000ff", for example. And the color included in this string is currently a RGB-color without alpha-channel. That is different from shapes. Shapes do not use "border" but "stroke" and for strokes a svg:stroke-opacity attribute exists. So making borders semi-transparent is a larger effort, including extending ODF. I could think of allowing a RGB-Color with alpha-channel in the string in file markup. Such is allowed in CSS for example. (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #7) > Regina, at least the cell background should provide transparency like other > shapes. A table cell is very different from a shape. The "Table" object in Impress is actually a frame-object (that is a shape), which has a table as content. The frame has its own graphic properties, only most of them are suppressed if the content is a table. A table can also exist as stand-alone element, what is done in Writer or Calc. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
