Setting Transparency on a Patch

(Originally posted on Doug's MATLAB Video Tutorials blog.)

Here is a three and a half minute video that shows how to set transparency based on data values. I tagged this as a practical example because it was a case that came into Technical Support here at The MathWorks and I was called in to help, but I also think it is an advanced technique. This technique can be useful if you want to chop off the data that is in a certain range to make other data easier to see. Do you have other uses for this too?
