transparent colours for filling contours? [message #26229]

Hi,
I am plotting contours over a map and I was wondering if there was a
way of filling the contours so that I can still see the map
underneath? i.e. I want to be able to see country boundaries
underneath the filled contours. Is there a colour table that contains
sone transparent colours? Or is this completely impossible to do?
Regards
Ann Webber

Dear Ann,

the best is to draw the map again.

Because of some changes of the system variables you should save them.
For this you can use our routines savesysvar() and restsysvar.
