That is different in OOXML, where transparency is a color transformation. In ODF you can have a rectangular transparency gradient together with a linear color gradient, for example. Such is not possible in OOXML. As noted already, ODF 1.4 will allow all kind of fill properties in all places where currently a <style:background-image> is possible. And then we can have semi-transparent table, table-row and table-cell background. It needs only someone to implement it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
