There are two ways to go about this. One is to use the color command

say 20 times in a script to gradually increase the transparency to 1. You can specify the color as 4 values r,g,b,a in Chimera 1.4 daily builds (but not in 1.3).
A similar approach that does work in the 1.3 release is to color your ribbons with a color you defined with the 'colordef' command. You can then keep redefining the color to change its transparency and the ribbons will change accordingly. --Eric
