Step 1: Open Google Slides
Go to Google Slides and open an existing presentation or create a new one. Click on a slide where you want to insert or modify a shape.
Step 2: Insert a Shape
Click on the "Insert" menu in the top toolbar. Select "Shape" and choose your preferred shape (rectangle, circle, or other available options).
Click and drag on the slide to draw the shape.
Step 3: Open the Format Options
Click on the shape to select it. In the top toolbar, click on "Format Options" to open the settings panel on the right.
If you don’t see "Format Options," right-click on the shape and select "Format options" from the menu.
Step 4: Adjust the Transparency (Opacity) Settings
In the "Format Options" panel, expand the "Fill color" section. Click on the color fill box, then click on "Custom" to open the color adjustment settings.
Adjust the "Transparency" slider to decrease transparency and make the shape more opaque.
Set the transparency level to 0% for full opacity.
Step 5: Apply and Save Changes
Once you are satisfied with the opacity setting, click anywhere outside the shape to apply the changes.
Your shape will now appear with the adjusted opacity level, making it fully or partially opaque as per your preference.
