@timhoffm Hi. Just wondering what else needs to get done before this fix can get merged.

Per our merge policy, we need two reviews. So this is waiting for a second core developer to approve.

Are you interested in writing a test? It looks like you have a test script in#28793, and it should be able to be turned into afigure comparison if you compare the path effect with directly plotting a line with the effective settings.

Sure, that shouldn't be a problem

I marked the test as XFail because the '@check_figures_equal()' decorator only works for identical results. Here are screen captures of the diff.

I don't understand; the point of the test would be to confirm that the shadow is set the way you'd expect it to, and thus have equal figures.

I see what you mean. I changed it to plot a line with the alpha value instead for transparency.
