There are PlotBrushes[0][0] but what about PlotStrokes[0][0]?

[MartinT]

Hello,

This is just a general question. I am interested in more flexibility when modifying a plot line.

I would like to vary the Opacity of an AddPlot line on a subpanel. Using Plots[0] I can vary the Opacity, Width, and Color. My problem with this method color is changed for the entire plot line not just a single or more bars like PlotBrushes[0][0] can. Unfortunately, I have found that PlotBrushes[0][0] does not provide Opacity as a changeable option.

If instead of PlotBrushes[0][0], PlotStrokes[0][0] existed, it could provide color changes, Opacity, and by extension Width all per-bar?

If it is not available now, is it planned? If not, could you shed some light on why not.

Hello MartinT,

You can use opacity with PlotBrushes but you need to make your own brush that has opacity. Brushes by default have 100% opacity meaning their completely solid.

To make a brush that has opacity you need to define a new brush, set its opacity and then freeze it before setting to to PlotBrushes.

SolidColorBrush myBrush = new SolidColorBrush(Brushes.Red.Color);
myBrush.Opacity = 0.25;
myBrush.Freeze();
