Adding alpha to a layer allows you to have parts of it transparent (ie. you can "see through it") to the layer(s) below. I think you should clarify what it is you are trying to do. What do you mean by divide? It would also help if you could post your code somewhere so we can look at it and see what you are doing. -- Cheers!
