I'm hoping to have the grid appear in front of the three series in this graph (grey area, white area, blue line).This message has been edited. Last edited by: Francis Mariani,

A different approach: Is it possible to make the white area series transparent, but also 'cut into' the grey area series - I'd like to see the grid behind the white area series.
Or is there an area series where I can specify a maximum and minimum?

For those that use the GUI, within the advanced graph editor, click on the "Chart Editor" tab and then select the series in which you are interested. Then look for the "Series color Transparency" attribute and change it from the default of 255.

-* Series 0 - Top Band
setSeriesType(getSeries(0),3); // set series type for series 0 to 3 - 'riser area' - area
setFillColor(getSeries(0),new Color(200,200,200,170)); // set series 0 line color, including trasparency
-* Series 1 - Bottom Band
setSeriesType(getSeries(1),3); // set series type for series 1 to 3 - 'riser area' - area
setFillColor(getSeries(1),new Color(255,255,255,130)); // set series 1 line color, including trasparency
-* Series 2 - Investment Portfolio %
setSeriesType(getSeries(2),2); // set series type for series 2 to 2 - 'riser marker' - line
setFillColor(getSeries(2),new Color(0,127,192)); // set series 2 line color
setMarkerShape(getSeries(0),2); // set marker shape
setLineWidth(getSeries(2),4); // define the thickness of a line object
I might play with the colours a bit, but the graph now clearly shows the grid.
I may be the last cowboy programmer, but I do follow the book. I looked up opacity and transparency in the WebFOCUS 'Graphics' Version 7 Release 7.03 manual and for transparency there was only one hit: setGaugeAlphaChannel() - Sets the transparency of a gauge object. I looked for a newer manual and couldn't find a newer Version 7 manual. Where is this fourth colour attribute documented?
Cheers and thanks,
Francis

The answer to your question? Well, I just happen to have known where the transparency was set in the GUI (yes, I know, me-GUI-really?) and it was a simple case of locating where in the code this was set.
Also, in WF8 graphics I have often used the transparency value as the fourth parameter and therefore it was really confirming that 7.7.03+ also used that extension of the attributes.
Personally, I miss Jennifer from Doc services jumping in and giving us the detail
