如何修改亚克力材质的透明度

Question

I'm trying to learn a few things about UWP through an example I downloaded from GitHub (I am totally amateur about UWP and I know it would be best to read a book for beginners) In the example the left pane uses Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}" and the right panel uses Background="#7F000000"

In the right panel, I understood how to change the color and the percentage of transparency. But I didn't understand how to do this on the left panel.

EDIT: and why does the top left edge have white pixelated artifacts?

I tried your code but it shows totally different behavior. The left panel shows the acrylic effect and the right part doesn't have an acrylic effect. I guess it caused I'm using part of the code in your sample.

Since you are trying to understand how to use and modify the acrylic material, so I'd like to offer another suggestion for your scenario. To understand how to use the acrylic effect, you could take a look at the official document: Acrylic material instead of the third-party library. The official document introduces the type of acrylic, how to use acrylic and what it looks like. There are also code snippets that are easy to understand and test. For example, it shows how to custom acrylic brush on your own request.
