<ul></ul><p>Confirmed in master<br />Opacity is the inverse of Transparency and it seems to be used correctly in that case.<br />But I discovered that Transparency itself is calculated and displayed differently on several places in QGIS.<br />(Symbology, Colors, Diagrams).<br />Probably we should have a guideline to use Transparency or Opacity and how (0-100%, value 0-255, value 0-1)</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #6389: Print composer: opacity not working for mapshttps://issues.qgis.org/issues/6389?journal_id=385872013-01-29T02:44:23ZOlivier Dalangolivier.dalang@gmail.com

<p>Image 1: Normal QGis window, 50% opacity/transparency/alpha on the management area boxes. All looks good.<br />Image 2: Print composer looking as terrible as it always does.

<ul></ul><p>Apologies for the attitude; I've spent a few days trying to do simple outputs of 2 layer maps and am a little surprised the what I assume to be rather a core feature is such a struggle to use.</p>
<p>That aside, genuine question: how is this a random unrelated bug? Fair enough, reading again my problem is specific to composer, but that hardly makes it random & unrelated, even if it is indeed not the same issue. I'll search the issue tracker again to see if this has been opened elsewhere.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #6389: Print composer: opacity not working for mapshttps://issues.qgis.org/issues/6389?journal_id=507162014-05-09T00:46:21ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com

<p>1) it does not look terrible, (in the print composer) to see the map object with its native resolution you must set "renderer" (other options are "cache" and "rectangle") in its properties <br />2) just tested here with my own data and it works as expected, so eventually, if you still see the issue, attaching a sample project/data would help<br />3) you have to eventually file a new ticket because this wasn't about the transparency given to a vector in its own properties, but was about the opacity/transparency given to the object "map" inside the print composer</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #6389: Print composer: opacity not working for mapshttps://issues.qgis.org/issues/6389?journal_id=507262014-05-09T06:08:34ZSimon Dedman
<ul></ul><p>1) Thanks, that's brilliant to know. A little off topic maybe, but is 'cache' the default simply because it's the lowest starting letter alphabetically?</p>
<p>2) Also works with 'renderer' in master (not today's update yet: 2.3.0+git20140505+70225a3~trusty1) on ubuntu, so I'll try on windows master and stable with/without render on, and</p>
<p>3) Will file a new ticket. Cheers!</p>
