Transparency of dropdown

[ShanP]

I've set the opacity of my dropdown to 20%. This is fine, until I press the it to drop down and the choices have a transparent background. Is there anyway to keep the dropdown at a transparent level when untouched, but when selected, revert back to a solid background?

Hi @ShanP,

We could take use of the OnCange property of the Dropdown Control, for example:

1. Under the OnChange property of the Dropdown, we use the following formula to create a Variable:

UpdateContext({Switch1:true})

2. Then under the Fill property of the Dropdown, change the formula as below:

If(Switch1,RGBA( 0, 0, 255, 0.8 ),RGBA( 0, 0, 255, 0.2 ))

Doing those two steps would make the Dropdown to stay at 20% transparent of the RGBA, and once the dropdown changed its value, it will change to 80%.
