Hi! Changing the alpha-channel of a plotted image doesn't work for me in an ipython (pylab) shell.
The example below illustrates the problem (i hope so at least ...) Running it with %run - everything is fine and the two images look the same. Runing it line by line without the show, the figure shows up, the images are plotted, but the alpha-value of im1 is not set correctly so it's fully opaque in the left plot. Is it just me or is it a bug, and if it's a bug is it a bug in pylab or in matplotlib? Thanks in advance! Jochen Code: import numpy as np from matplotlib.pyplot import * aimg = np.array([[0, 1, 1, 0], [0, 1, 2, 0], [0, 1, 3, 0], [0, 1, 4, 0]]) figure() ax = subplot(121) im1 = imshow(aimg, alpha = 1, interpolation='nearest') im1.set_alpha(0.5) ax = subplot(122) im2 = imshow(aimg, alpha = 0.5, interpolation='nearest') show() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
