Translucent Wipeout
We're all familiar with the use of wipeouts to completely block out anything that is behind it based on its draw order, however, apparently you can also give it a translucency such that it it only partially obscures the items behind it. I happened upon it earlier this week. I'm not quite sure what to do with it yet but I thought I'd share it with others.
I suppose one could place it within a block behind its contents, set the translucency to 50, and it would '50% screen' existing items behind where the block of new items was place. One could add it to an area of a drawing, set a translucency, then set the draw order of items to be above or below it to screen those items, but only when they crossed into that partial wipeout area.
