Hi all, I really liked the snipped John wrote in a mail some time ago, so I mock up a very simple example to set the alpha on a legend.
It seems interesting to have such an example, also in the gallery. Since I don't have much time to dive into the sphinx example generation and so, I just hand you the code, asking to include it.

#!/usr/bin/python # # Show how to add a translucent legend # import pyplot module import matplotlib.pyplot as plt # draw 2 crossing lines plt.plot([0,1], label='going up') plt.plot([1,0], label='going down') # add the legend in the middle of the plot leg = plt.legend(fancybox=True, loc='center') # set the alpha value of the legend: it will be translucent leg.get_frame().set_alpha(0.5) # show the plot plt.show()
