Hi Benoit,

It depends. Yes - you can mix transparent and opaque features. For each color you can also set the opacity/transparency value.

However, if two features overlap and you use transparency on the feature level, you can see the features shine through - whereas when the transparency would be on the symbol level (which isn't implemented yet in QGIS) you would first composite all elements in a symbol level and then apply the opacity on the whole group. See http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/REC-SVG11-20110816/masking.html#ObjectAndGroupOpacityProperties for the difference. In http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/REC-SVG11-20110816/images/masking/opacity01.png - if you look at the bottom row of circles - the second pair of circles has the opacity on the group of two circles, whereas the third pair has opacity on every single element. I hope you can see the difference.

It would be very cool if QGIS could have a more fine-grained opacity - new opacity on symbol level and new opacity on a whole group of layers. It would make the cartographic options even better ;-)

Hello,

I noticed this feature request : https://hub.qgis.org/issues/3438.

Is it possible to have semi-transparent and opaque features within the same layer ?

Best regards,

Benoît
