Chequered Transparent Pattern Blend

[shinobi]

Hi,

I'm wondering how to create a pattern like a chequered flag (only transparent) and the transparency gets less and less as it goes toward the right. I have this logo I created, and I want to logo to look as if it's dissolving into a "digital pattern" ie. chequer board kinda look. Does someone know what I mean?

You can use the Power Duplicate option (cmd+J) to create the squares then apply a transparent gradient to the squares.

See the example below: Saved with history so you can jog back on forth in the history panel.
