Opacity

Opacity refers to the measure of how much light can pass through an element, determining its transparency or translucency. In digital design and graphics, opacity is used to control the visibility of layers, images, or objects. An element with 100% opacity is fully opaque, meaning no light passes through and the element is completely visible. Conversely, an element with 0% opacity is entirely transparent, making it invisible. Adjusting the opacity can create various visual effects, such as blending images or text seamlessly into the background. This concept is widely applied in web design, photo editing, and digital art to enhance visual appeal and user experience. Understanding and manipulating opacity allows designers to achieve the desired aesthetic and functional outcomes in their projects.
