Hello,
Can you please share me the Hyperview api to set the "display transparency level" to a particular value.
We used to do it manually by
File -> Preferences -> Graphics -> Display -> Transparency level
Hi @Ajay Prabhakaran,
You can modify the transparency level in the TCL Command Window using the *transparencyvalue command:

Hope this helps!

Hello @GTT Adam
This command will work only on Hypermesh. I am looking out for a command to work in Hyperview.
Thanks for your support
Since this is a general graphics option, this can be set using the command in a HyperMesh instance and it will be applied in subsequent HyperView instances.
Can you provide context as to why the transparency level needs to be set dynamically?
Hi @GTT Adam
I am writing a code to save ISO image of an odb. I see a trend that, Simulation engineer sometimes set the transparency to 0 or 1. In such cases the ISO view is not plotted correctly or the contours are not visually clear. So, if i have an option to set the transparency to 7,5 before the script execution, i will be on a safer side to plot nice contours. I hope you understand my concern.
Thank you so much for your support.
