Description

Setting diagram transparency doesn't work using python :

dr = QgsLinearlyInterpolatedDiagramRenderer()
ds = QgsDiagramSettings()
...
ds.transparency = 70
...
dr.setDiagramSettings(ds)
...
myLayer.setDiagramRenderer(dr)

The strange thing is that transparency is correctly set in the diagram's appearence tab after running this code.
Moreover, if the dialog is validated, the diagrams become transparent...

You should set the alpha values on the colors in the QgsDiagramSettings. The transparency variable is only a cache for loading/saving the style.

Thank you very much for your answer, Matthias.
Can you confirm that alpha value = 255 * transparency /100 (e.g. transparency = 30)?
I doesn't seem to be exactly that, I wonder if it's a rounding problem...
