Re: @gsFillOpacityF does not work

What about trying the following:

rgba = new( (/1,4/), float)
rgba(:,0:2) = namedcolor2rgb("cornflowerblue") ; note lack of space in name!
rgba(:,3) = 0.5
res@gsnXYFillColors = rgba(0,:) ; or possibly just "… = rgba"

Untested, but it might get you what you need -- please let us know.
