Hello everyone,
<br>
<br>
PSTricks seems to support very well transparency, throught the
options
<br>
`opacity` and `strokeopacity`. However, it does not seems to work
well
<br>
with the functions psdataplot, psfileplot and pslistplot.
<br>
First, issuing someting like
<br>
\psfileplot[strokeopacity=.5]{file} ,
<br>
indeed makes the resulting line "lighter" and behave like a
transparent
<br>
object, at the exception that if the line intersects itself, the
<br>
intersection does not get "darker", as one would expect when
transparent
<br>
objects are superimposed.<br>
I understand that this is a minor issue. More problematic is when I
want
<br>
a scatter plot, with
<br>
\psfileplot[plotstyle=dots,strokeopacity=.5]{file} ,
<br>
then <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>transparency
is not applied anymore to the data points<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b>.
Same issue
<br>
with
<br>
\psfileplot[showpoints=true,strokeopacity=.5]{file} .
<br>
Changing the dots (e.g. `dotstyle=o`) does not help.
<br>
<br>
Any idea to get a scatter plot with transparent points, so that the
<br>
areas with more point density get more color density ?
<br>
<br>
Regards,
<br>
Hugo<br>
