Happy New Year Thunkers 🎉

I am trying to make some Sprites fade out when clicked (Like [Domhnall’s example here](https://community.thunkable.com/t/slideshow-with-transitions-and-auto-advance/200919)

I’ve been mucking around with changing the sprite opacity and Z position to try to make it work, to no avail.

I have printed the Opacity or Z values to a label and they don’t appear to be changing.

Wondering if there’s something I’m missing? Or possible the opacity can’t be modified dynamically?

Thanks y’all.
