| 
                               dwcontrol  | 
                           
                               A reference to the DataWindow control containing the graph.  | 
                        
| 
                               graphcontrol  | 
                           
                               A string whose value is the name of the graph in the DataWindow control.  | 
                        
| 
                               series  | 
                           
                               The string that identifies the series in which you want to set the transparency value.  | 
                        
| 
                               transparency  | 
                           
                               Integer value for percentage transparency. A value of 0 means that the series is opaque and a value of 100 means that it is completely transparent.  | 
                        
Return value
Returns 1 if it succeeds and -1 if an error occurs. If any argument's value is null, SetSeriesTransparency returns null.
Usage
SetSeriesTransparency sets the transparency value for a series in a DirectX 3D graph (those with 3D rendering).
Examples
These statements set the transparency percentage to 50% for the series named Costs in the graph gr_1 in the DataWindow control dw_employee:
integer SeriesNbr, ItemNbr, TransNbr
string ls_SeriesName
grObjectType clickedtype
 
// Get the number of the series and datapoint
clickedtype = this.ObjectAtPointer("gr_1", &
      SeriesNbr, ItemNbr)
 
//Get the name of series      
ls_SeriesName = dw_employee.SeriesName("gr_1", &
      SeriesNbr)
 
//The following statement sets Transparency to 50%
TransNbr = 50   
 
dw_employee.SetSeriesTransparency("gr_1", &
      ls_SeriesName, TransNbr)See also
