Hi, I am trying to make rectangle shape transparent with a macro and also insert text from a variable and then make the text 50% transparent. I tried to record this but it didn't work. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!!

You need study and use the StarBasic (or other supported programming language) AND the functions of the Application Programming Interface (API).

Re: Drawing object properties
I made a Draw document with one simple shape and this code changes the transparency
That does not answer how to pick out the shape in your case. Also, I do not see a way to make the text transparent, though I did not search for long.
Code: Select all
oDrawPages = ThisComponent.getDrawPages()
oDP = oDrawPages.getByIndex(0)
oShape = oDP.getByIndex(0)
oShape.setPropertyValue("FillTransparence", 50)OpenOffice 4.1 on Windows 10 and Linux Mint
