+Finally, it is possible to gradually fade the start of a color map, to make it starts with white.  This can be done using the :data:`fade` modifier, following the syntax :data:`<colormap>:fade[(threshold)]`.  The threshold ranges from 0 to 1 and is equal to 0.1 by default.  Fading is applied linearly from 0 (full fading) to the threshold (no fading).  Examples are show below:
