#1027 — filledcurve with fsteps

gnuplot 4.6.0

It seems that 'filledcurve' will work with 'fsteps' to color the steps in to look like rectangles, but it's not clear from browsing the newsgroup.

so far, I can get the step to look OK but the filled part looks like a triangle instead of a rectangle, e.g. :

set timefmt "%d %m %Y"
set xdata time
set format x "%d/%m\n%Y"
set style fill transparent solid 0.5 noborder
plot \
0 w l lt -1 notitle, \
0 w l lt 0 notitle, \
'data.dat' u  1:4 w fsteps lt  1 notitle, \
''         u  1:4 w filledcurve lt  1 notitle

data.dat:
30 12 2011       0   
24 03 2012       0
24 03 2012       0   
06 04 2012      200   
07 04 2012      300
07 12 2012       .
08 01 2012       .
09 01 2012       .

.... it would be helpful to know for sure if fsteps and filledcurves are compatible - esp. b/c it sounds like 'fsteps' might not really create closed polygons, and 'filledcurves' fills, well, curves, if it is to be taken literally.

p.s: sorry about the previous post - I deleted it when I browsed into the transparency demos. but thanks.

... or is 'fillsteps' in 4.7 what I want?
