plscmap1la(3) Set cmap1 colors and alpha transparency using a piece-wise linear relationship

SYNOPSIS

plscmap1la(itype, npts, intensity, coord1, coord2, coord3, alpha, alt_hue_path)

DESCRIPTION

This is a variant of plscmap1l(3plplot) that supports alpha channel transparency. It sets cmap1 colors using a piece-wise linear relationship between cmap1 intensity index (from 0. to 1.) and position in HLS or RGB color space (see the PLplot documentation) with alpha transparency value (0.0 - 1.0). It may be called at any time.

Redacted form: plscmap1la(itype, intensity, coord1, coord2, coord3, alpha, alt_hue_path)

This function is used in example 30.

ARGUMENTS

itype (PLBOOL, input)
true: RGB, false: HLS.
npts (PLINT, input)
number of control points
intensity (const PLFLT *, input)
position for each control point (between 0.0 and 1.0, in ascending order)
coord1 (const PLFLT *, input)
first coordinate (H or R) for each control point
coord2 (const PLFLT *, input)
second coordinate (L or G) for each control point
coord3 (const PLFLT *, input)
third coordinate (S or B) for each control point
alpha (const PLFLT *, input)
the alpha transparency value for each control point
alt_hue_path (const PLBOOL *, input)
alternative interpolation method flag for each control point. (alt_hue_path[i] refers to the interpolation interval between the i and i + 1 control points).
