I know I can't. I think john may be right that it's just not that hard
to do by hand.

It still might be convenient to make this an option on savefig. Sure it's only
a few lines of code, but not necessarily obvious lines of code.

Nils,
I saw your bump about this transparency issue. Before moving forward on
this, I'd like to know what your use case is. I've attached a mock-up
example. On the left is the effect of changing the alpha value of
everything to 50% (what you and Christopher had suggested). But it
seems to
Of course, this depends on what you mean by transparency. If you mean
to change the alpha of the entire PNG, then yes, the global parameter
(or postprocessing) is the way to go. But I'm not sure how useful that
is -- that will still lighten things behind the figure and axes patch.
A more use

I'd make it an optional parameter to savefig(), but I like the idea.
Of course one could pretty easily post-process it as well.

Yes, but you must explicitly set the transparency on every object you
want to be transparent::
fig = plt.figure()
fig.figurePatch.set_alpha(0.5)
ax = fig.add_su
Hi all,
Is it possible to produce transparent png's with mpl ?
