] Plan gridline colour changes unpredictably
Hi,
0.5white doesn't work in CMYK properly (it's equivalent to 0.5*(0,0,0,0) =
(0,0,0,0) = white)
0.1black doesn't work in RGB (it's 0.1*(0,0,0) = (0,0,0) = black)
So your formula produces 50% gray in RGB and 10% gray in CMYK. No idea why

you got 10% gray in some RGB setups, some test data would

I have in my layout some metapost code to redefine the plan gridlines, used
without apparent problem for perhaps 10 years. It includes a colour
specification.

Mostly they come out like this, very light grey. This example is exported
