How to use Color Opacity / RGBA

Pick a color, drag the opacity slider, preview it over the checkerboard, and copy the rgba() or 8-digit hex value.

Frequently asked questions

What is the alpha value in rgba()?

Alpha is the opacity, from 0 (fully transparent) to 1 (fully opaque). rgba(0,0,0,0.5) is 50% black.

How does 8-digit hex encode opacity?

The last two hex digits are the alpha byte, so #FF000080 is red at about 50% opacity.

Why preview over a checkerboard?

The checkerboard shows through the transparent areas so you can judge the true opacity of the color.
