Flash Tip: Color Options for Symbols

By Adrien-Luc Sanders, About.com

Alpha Options

The Alpha option affects the opacity of the symbol, with the slider ranging from 0-100%. 0% opacity would make the object wholly transparent, while 100% opacity would make it wholly solid/opaque. When the opacity is lowered, you can see other objects through the symbol, in increasing levels of clarity as the opacity decreases.
