How can I change the opacity of the layer mask?

HI -.


I used a layer mask to hide portions of a picture.

Now I need to leave this hidden part of show at, say, 50% opacity (I'll have to experiment to find the optimal percentage.).

I'd like to screw up the layer mask and start on another.  Already, I thought I could duplicate the masked layer, remove the mask on the copy and set its opacity to 50% but now I have 2 layers.  I suspect that there is a way to do without a double layer.

Is it possible to adjust the opacity of the layer mask?

TIA your entry

Have you tried to use the controls in the masks palette?

You control the opacity of the area exposed with the opacity of the layer and the density of the hidden box with the density on the masks palette slider.

  • How can I change the areas masked with ice?

    I have a page set up on site for a client that displays in 2 parts with a tab to switch between them.  The regions that have been hidden by CSS do not appear in the InContext Editor. How can I configure it so everything on the page is editable?

    You will probably need to detect if the ice is active, then do both at the same time.

    Here's a little snippet I use to detect if the ice is active on the page:

    var iceActive;     if (typeof window.frameElement !== "undefined") {         iceActive = (window.frameElement !== null && window.frameElement.className === 'beditor-iframe');     } else {         console.warn('window.frameElement not defined; ICE mode detection not available');         iceActive = false;     }

  • Response of local folders looks like the answer to the discussion group. No signature or formatting options. How can I change the local folders meets regularly?

    Please see image attached. Responses from the eyes of local folders as responses to the discussion groups. No signature or formatting options. How can I change the local folders meets regularly, as they are in the Inbox?

    I don't think that the format of replies to the messages in the local folders are linked with focus groups or to individual account settings. As local folders can contain messages between several accounts or identities, it is more likely that formatting uses the setting of the account or identity appearing in the: field when you reply.

    This is how I think it should work. How this works in practice may be different.

    I posted a style rule to shrink the tiles, which allows several of them on the page, but naturally reduces their legibility. You can experiment with the dimensions to find a look that works for you.

    I use the Stylish extension to experiment because of its preview function that allows me to see the effect quickly. You can install it from the site of modules, then after restart of Firefox while searching for his "S" icon in the toolbar to manage Styles so you can edit and experiment.
