How do I change the transparency of multiple beams all together

[xarmebx (armeb)]

If i got 2 beams like this:

and I want to change the transparency of them together, I can’t D:

is there any way to change their transparencies all at once without having to use scripts?

There is currently no way to edit multiple sequence properties simultaneously, confirmed by staff here.

If you don’t want to use code as a workaround you could just edit a single beam and paste it into the other Part. In the meantime, consider supporting the following feature request:

Let us edit multiple sequence properties at a time

With the beta release of the UIGradient object, I have noticed how tedious using multiple UIGradient objects is when you need to change the color or transparency. Of course this is also a pain with ParticleEmitters and Beams as well. Since you cannot edit multiple ColorSequence/NumberSequence properties at one time, you need to go through each of them individually, which is quite slow and annoying, especially if you change more than one part of the sequence.

what about solid beam colors?
bc I can’t seem to do that D:
(does solid colors also fall under the numbersequence thing (sorry idk terminology :> ))

Beam color is still a ColorSequence whether you’re using a gradient or a single value, so these can’t be edited simultaneously either. If a property’s three dots open a line graph then you’re looking at a NumberSequence; if they open a gradient editor then you’re looking at a ColorSequence.

In either case, they can only be edited separately. Staff mentioned on this old thread why this happens – determining a sensible starting value in the editor is too difficult.
