  <interface name="wp_alpha_modifier_v1" version="1">
    <description summary="surface alpha modifier manager">
      This interface allows a client to set a factor for the alpha values on a
      surface, which can be used to offload such operations to the compositor,
      which can in turn for example offload them to KMS.

      Warning! The protocol described in this file is currently in the testing
      phase. Backward compatible changes may be added together with the
      corresponding interface version bump. Backward incompatible changes can
      only be done by creating a new major version of the extension.

    <description summary="alpha modifier object for a surface">
      This interface allows the client to set a factor for the alpha values on
      a surface, which can be used to offload such operations to the compositor.
      The default factor is UINT32_MAX.

      This object has to be destroyed before the associated wl_surface. Once the
      wl_surface is destroyed, all request on this object will raise the
      no_surface error.

    <request name="destroy" type="destructor">
      <description summary="destroy the alpha modifier object">
        This destroys the object, and is equivalent to set_multiplier with
        a value of UINT32_MAX, with the same double-buffered semantics as
        set_multiplier.
      </description>
    </request>

    <request name="set_multiplier">
      <description summary="specify the alpha multiplier">
        Sets the alpha multiplier for the surface. The alpha multiplier is
        double-buffered state, see wl_surface.commit for details.

        This factor is applied in the compositor's blending space, as an
        additional step after the processing of per-pixel alpha values for the
        wl_surface. The exact meaning of the factor is thus undefined, unless
        the blending space is specified in a different extension.

        This multiplier is applied even if the buffer attached to the
        wl_surface doesn't have an alpha channel; in that case an alpha value
        of one is used instead.

        Zero means completely transparent, UINT32_MAX means completely opaque.
