matplotlib doesn't currently support gradients. Patches welcome! :) It's probably a lot of work to get it working across all backends, but following the pattern of how hatches are handled now would probably be a good guide.

Dear Matplotlib folks,


is it possible in Matplotlib to add eye candy or gimmicks to the plots
like fading? For example if I want to just show a subpart(?) of a plot
this would like “cool”. (I am pretty sure that opinions differ if such
things are useful or not, but please leave this out of the discussion.)

It looks like PGF/TikZ supports such things (manual [1], page 206) and
therefore I am wondering if Matplotlib can do this too?


Thanks,

Paul
