Default radar chart - how to acieve transparency in fill effects?

i am trying to do a radar chart of activities of my organization in
comparison to other organizations. as a result, i have stacked filled in
areas, however i am not able to make them transparent so as to see the area
under the one that is on top. There is a tab for "Transparency" under
"Patterns" - "Fill Effects" when I double click on an area i want to make
transparent, but I cannot make it work. The transparency tab remains
unresponsive. Anybody have any advice? Thanks.
