Furthermore, the shading variants for linear_shade do not correspond with those listed in the metafun manual, page 180. Variant 2 is missing and behaves like variant 3 should.
Not so exactly. The today reality is a bit richer than that in the Metafun manual. One can choose from 8 directions:
number direction 1 NE 2 NW 3 SW 4 SE 5 E 6 N 7 W 8 S other E
All right, thanks. Admittedly, i could have found this by trying more numbers. But anyway, transparency is ignored when using shading. Is there any possibility to achieve a gradient from, i.e., completely transparent to completely intransparent white?
