Ah sorry for the noise, I didn't read your message well. I somehow thought you
ment an *integer* rather than a float.
So, I'm not sure whether you want a single line that changes width and color or
several lines that change. In the latter case you could of course just loop over
your properties. Something like
x = linspace(0,3,50)
for w in [0,1,2,3,4,5]:
plot(x, sin(x*w), lw=w, color=(w/5.0,0,(5-w)/5.0));
If you don't want that, then the example from Troels Kofoed Jacobsen will be
a nice way to go. Didn't know about mlab.poly_between. Didn't find it in the
CHANGELOG.
cheers,
steve
