    Take a look at https://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_gradients.asp - you might be able to get something working through that… RGBA values seem to work there.

    The text gradients they do is different. :)

      @jamaces easy peasy…here’s an example:

      .MMM-YahooWeather .fade {      
        	-webkit-mask-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, black 10%, transparent 100%);
          mask-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, black 10%, transparent 100%);
         height:  120px;
        }
      

      The magic is in the fade… gives you this effect: [see bottom of 4 days forecast]

                @bkeyport Thank you! I realized after I made the post it is called gradient.

                For future knowledge

                change background-color to background-image and add linear-gradient with another RGBA value.

                Thank you for your help.

                Is there a way to have CSS go gradient to the left and to the right?

                I have the news module at the bottom and I really just want it to be dark in the centre where the headlines are.

                I have tried to right and to left, I have tried radial and nothing seems to work.
