[OpenLayers-Users] Opacity of GoogleLayer, get selected layer

[Arnd Wippermann]

Hi,

    OSM.setOpacity(0.1);

    map.addLayers([google, OSM, google_t]);

    google.setOpacity(0.1);
    google_t.setOpacity(0.1); 

The Google layers have to add to the map before you can change the opacity
of the Google layers. For other layers it's possible before adding them to
the map.

Arnd

<http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/spherical-mercator.html>

open the firebug console, and do:

map.layers[0].setOpacity(0.2) // -> this changes the opacity of the current
base layer
map.layers[1].setOpacity(0.2) // -> this changes the opacity of the Google
Satellite layer, although it's not the current base layer

now select the Google Satellite layer in the LayerSwitcher, its opacity is
expectedly 0.2.

Maybe I don't understand the issue you're having.
