Project "Transparent Envelope" as Help for virtual construction using MLCad

[Travis Cobbs]

(3) I added the more transparent color "Trans_Clear_Clear" temporarily to LDConfig.ldr by copying existing definition for "Trans_Clear" and changing CODE to 48 (unused color) and ALPHA from 128 to 100. It seems for me that ALPHA is a measure for the transparency - what is the usable (allowed) range of this value ? (e.g. 64 does not work)

LDView should accept any value. Values lower than 128 should be more transparent than the default, and values above 128 should be less transparent. (Note that this only works if the ldconfig.ldr option is enabled in LDView.) Since MLCAD uses 50/50 stipple pattern for transparency, I wouldn't really expect it to accurately support any other values.
