Color change in plots

Hello Y'all,

I have a figure in which two curves are shown. The Problem is that both curves overlap so its hard to properly see both curves. Im trying to make the colors more transparent so that you can clearly see both curves despite the overlap.

I attached the Figure below.

Thank u in advance

% Plot for CS+ und CS-
figure;
shadedErrorBar(time_vector, mean_curve2_all_CS_plus, se_CS_plus, {'-r', 'LineWidth', 2});
hold on;
shadedErrorBar(time_vector, mean_curve2_all_CS_minus, se_CS_minus, {'-b', 'LineWidth', 2});
hold off;
xlabel('Zeit');
ylabel('Mittelwert');
title('Durchschnittliche Mittelwerte für CS+ und CS-');
legend('CS+', 'CS-');

Hi

I have seen your attached fig (better to attach (also) a *.png file as @Image Analyst commented

Anyhow - you use "shadedErrorBar" function (Xchange server link: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/26311-raacampbell-shadederrorbar

)

If you are looking @ the "demo_shadedErrorBar_live.mlx" file - line 36 is:

shadedErrorBar(x, y, {@mean,@std}, 'lineprops', '-r','transparent',false,'patchSaturation',0.075)

You can control tranparancy by setting: 'transparent' to 'true' and tune the 'patchSaturation' to the desired tranparant requested

Explicitly:

change to:

shadedErrorBar(x, y, {@mean,@std}, 'lineprops', '-r','transparent',true,'patchSaturation',0.075)

and view the result (red line)

After

Good luck
