group transparency issue

I use this method to add two different transparencies/fills to a shape.

Never had any particular issue or crash.

I know the answer to this, but how do you add two different transparencies to a shape?

it's a group exercise

OK. If you group an object that has a transparency applied to it, you can then apply a second transparency.

This also applies to contours, and blends. Once these are grouped, they are treated as a single object to which transparency can be applied.

you can only group an object with itself once, but....

you can group it again with a no-fill no-outline object and so repeat....
