Adds transparency to the selected elements, while keeping the original color value.
The color is calculated with respect to a background color, so that the element will have it's original color when overlaying the background.
The background is white by default, but might be set to any other color.
If the amount of transparency ist set to high, the rgb channels might exceed the possible value range of 0 -255. In this case, the highest possible transparency is applied.
Alternatively, you can check the "force transparency" option, which will adjust the color to allow the desired transparency.
The extension is available under extensions/color. It applies to stroke and fill and also works on gradients and elements, which already have an transparency set.
Transparentify is available for inkscape v.1.x.
