Here is Wayne's example written by using function graphics :

pl = plot([0,100], [0,100], /NODATA)
x = [10,40,80]
y = [20,70,60]
orient = [80,140,0]
for i=0,2 do begin
!null = ellipse(x[i], y[i], MAJOR=12, MINOR=6, THETA=orient[i], /
DATA, FILL_COLOR=!COLOR.FIREBRICK)
!null = ellipse(x[i], y[i], MAJOR=8, MINOR=4, THETA=orient[i], /
DATA, FILL_COLOR=!COLOR.SALMON)
endfor

then, while adding another ellipse with "manual" color blending :

pl.Refresh, /DISABLE
!null = ellipse(60, 20, MAJOR=20, MINOR=10, /DATA, FILL_COLOR=!
COLOR.FIREBRICK)
for i=0,19 do !null = ellipse(60, 20, MAJOR=20*i*0.05,
MINOR=10*i*0.05, LINESTYLE=6, $
/DATA, FILL_COLOR=!COLOR.SALMON, FILL_TRANSPARENCY=6*i < 100)
pl.Refresh

alx.
