Description (last modified by slelievre)

The object of this ticket is to allow an optional argument "alpha" to set the transparency / opacity for contour_plot, like it exists for other types of plots.

An initial patch enables an 'opacity' argument to the contour_plot function. It should be renamed 'alpha' for consistency with its name elsewhere.

Doctests need to be added, and a few examples need to be written.

  • Status changed from new to needs_work

This patch was done in a rush, so there may be bugs in it.

Comments from David Sanders on sage-support:

Firstly, with this code it seems not to be possible to make a region_plot *without* specifying opacity -- it looks like a default argument is missing somewhere.

I think that is correct.
