Shortfall Transparency

The Shortfall Transparency allows for configuring transparency in the Shortfall account. Creating the appearance of semi-transparency for a shortfall in retirement produces the powerful visual effect of the shortfall being "empty." (Notice on the chart below where the lines can be seen during the shortfall period, but where no income occurs.)

A value of zero ('0') has no transparency, while a value of one hundred ('100') is fully transparent (i.e. no color will appear). As an example, the chart below used 60% transparency.
