Hi Sven,
As you know, all methods and functions are now listed in the SWIG API
reference document when using MS4W 4.0, and in the layerObj methods
section you can see a setOpacity() function
(https://mapserver.org/mapscript/mapscript.html#layerobj-methods).
Another trick is to open the local included file
"C:/ms4w/apps/phpmapscriptng-swig/include/mapscript.php" in your text
editor and search for "opacity" or "setOpacity" there, just to confirm
with your local installation of MS4W.
Recently another MS4W user asked about opacity, so I had created a test
script showing setOpacity() in action with SWIG MapScript:
https://ms4w.com/trac/wiki/SWIGMapScriptNewLayer
However, I admit that that example script is long and opacity is kind of
hidden in the code, so I have created another example for you at:
https://ms4w.com/trac/wiki/SWIGMapScriptOpacity which takes an existing
layer and adds a COMPOSITE object with the command:
// set opacity (actually creates a new COMPOSITE object)
$oPolyLayer->setOpacity(40);
I hope that makes it more clear.

Hello,
I test current php mapscript versions under Windows and try to give a
layer transparency.
With mapserver versions < 7 this was possible:
$layer_poly->opacity = 68;
With the version MS4W 3.3.1 with Mapserver > 7 and PHP Mapscript it
works like this:
$layer_poly->updateFromString('LAYER COMPOSITE OPACITY 68 END END');
In the new version MS4W 4.0.0 with the SWIG API I tried the following
variants:
$layer_poly->opacity = 68;
$layer_poly->setOpacity(68);
$layer_poly->updateFromString('LAYER COMPOSITE OPACITY 68 END END');
In all variants no error message, but also no transparency.
Any ideas?
Thanks Sven
