Can '#777' be the attribute default?

I don't think so. Using #777 (explicitly or any other color) should set the color of lines to exactly that color.
But I am open to using auto instead of blank string as the dflt of unselected.line.color, if you prefer that?

We have lots of examples where a color and an opacity are specified side-by-side... and it doesn't mean it's NOT that color, just that there's opacity applied later that dilutes it.
Actually thinking about this a bit more, I might even suggest removing the "set opacity to 1 if a color is explicitly specified" and keep 'auto' as the consistent default, because if you did want to change this color most likely you still want it diluted.

Good call. Addressed in 47bef38.

Can we describe 'auto'? Not the full formula, just qualitatively something like "The default 'auto' decreases the opacity smoothly as the number of lines increases."

Hi ! Is there any attribute available now that solves this issue in Python . I want to change the unselected line colour from the default grey to another colour. Please let me know . |
