@couet I believe @berserker is pointing out that the doc should be updated, mentioning that TikZ (aka TeX output as the doc currently calls it) does in fact not support transparency.
Yes TAttFill description was not correct. All the other TAtt* and TColor are fine. Now fixed. Still the marker issue would need some reproducer to be understood.
To be complete, it seems that TiKz allows to play with “opacity” for filled polygon. The ROOT backend uses it. But for line, text and marker it seems it does not… as far as I can see on the web.
Thanks for your input. The transparency macro here produces the attached TeX file. As you see the structure is a bit different from what you just exposed. I will see how to do it.
