object transparency

[ItayHadas]

when I use
print(gcf, '-dpdf','-painters', 'aaa.pdf')
I get object transparency

but when I use:
export_fig aaa.pdf -q101 -painters
I loss transparency

I read in the description that -painters don't support transparency, but it seems that when using print it works.
can this be fixed?

when I use the 'patch' and 'fill' functions the transparency comes out just fine ('facealpha' and 'FaceVertexAlphaData' properties).
But when using 'scatter' plot with 'Markerfacealpha' the transparency get lost in the image file (like in the image above).

@Jorjio - please send me a simple Matlab script file that reproduces the transparency export problem

Hi Yair
Many thanks for the nice work. However, I have the same issue.
when I use export_fig function to save files as -eps , markers on the figure (in the eps file) looses their transparency! I have attached a simple script for you .
Many thanks
