How do I control transparency in Photopea?

Published in Photopea Editing 2 mins read

You control transparency in Photopea by adjusting the layer's opacity.

Adjusting Layer Opacity in Photopea

Photopea, a free online photo editor, allows you to control the transparency of layers using the opacity setting. Here's how:

  1. Select the Layer: In the Layers panel (usually located on the right side of the interface), click on the layer you want to adjust the transparency of.
  2. Find the Opacity Setting: The opacity setting is typically located at the top of the Layers panel. It's usually a number (representing a percentage) next to a dropdown menu or a slider.
  3. Adjust the Opacity:
    • Using a Slider: Drag the slider left to decrease the opacity (making the layer more transparent) and right to increase the opacity (making it more opaque). 0% opacity makes the layer completely transparent, while 100% makes it completely opaque.
    • Typing a Value: Click on the opacity percentage to enter a specific value. Type in the desired percentage (between 0 and 100) and press Enter.

In Summary:

Controlling transparency in Photopea is achieved by adjusting the opacity of a selected layer within the Layers panel. Lower opacity percentages result in greater transparency.
