I am currently plotting some points onto an existing map of the UK using the following:
points(X$Long, X$Lat, col=X$Col, pch=16,cex=X$Size)
X is the data frame.
The colour of the points varies along with the size.(yellow to orange to red)
I would like the points to be semi transparent so that you can still just about see the lines underneath the points.
What is the easiest way to do this I have already seen some code to alter the colour code but is there an easier way?
Thank you in advance.
Try the argument":
alpha = I(1/2)
Change the ratio inside the parentheses to change the level of the transparency.
You can set the colour transparency within a colour Definition
mycol <- rgb(0, 0, 255, max = 255, alpha = 125, names = "blue50")
as mentioned above the alpha
values determines the degree of transparency
