event trasperancy, but not as atribute?

I just found that event's transparency level is not part of it's attributes.

it's a bug or a feature? (same thing in VP17), doesn't make sense to me.

And nearly on same note, what are my options in controlling event transparency by keyframes in VMS16p, it could be trivial but my head empty this morning.

Thank you

Unfortunately you cannot at Event level. The work around is to use the Composite Level Track Envelope and animate that. Not as good in my opinion as even with "Lock Envelopes to Events" it's not as reliable as having the animation at Event level.

Thank you Eric, I didn't went to top menu as surly a better place for those envelopes is is in the tracks menus, but found nothing there.

As I still have VP17 trial, I was able to hack my vm16p with some kind of a better solution on the event level, I hope it will last after the trial ends.
