Subject: drawarrow and transparency
Date: Wed, 2 May 2012 17:35:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120502173518.604e1545@sole.extra.cea.fr> (raw)

I have a MetaPost question concerning drawarrow withtransparency
(or any other compound object).

Is there some clever way to achieve uniform transparency
for a compound object? For example, in the minimal example
below, how can one obtain a transparent arrow without getting
an X-ray vision of the arrowhead?

\starttext
\startMPpage
	drawarrow origin--(1cm,0) withtransparency(1,.5) ;
	drawarrow origin--(0,1cm) withtransparency(1,.5) ;
\stopMPpage
\stoptext

Alan
