Layer transparency

I have a requirement that certain layers have transparency set, but I can't get the value to show up after saving. I've worked around the issue by having a template drawing that already has the layer and transparency set that I clone. But wondering if I could skip that step. Below is how I'm creating the layer.

C# Code:

var model = new DxfModel(); model.CreateDefaultObjects( true ); var layer = new DxfLayer( "test" ); layer.Transparency = Transparency.Create( 204 ); model.Layers.Add( layer ); DwgWriter.Write( @"c:\temp\1.dwg", model );

Hi, This was indeed not written to DWG yet. I've just implemented it in CadLib 4.0, can you try the latest version? Thanks for the report! - Wout Reply

Yes, the new version seems to work. The value I was seeing for the transparency seems to have changed, but seems consistent between reading and writing. Thanks. Reply
