// This macro demonstrates how to use "glcol" option for TH3
// and how to create user defined TRANSFER FUNCTION:
// transfer function maps bin value to voxel's opacity.
// codomain is [0, 1] (1. - non-transparent, 0.5 is semitransparent, etc.)
// To pass transparency function into painting algorithm, you have to:
// 1) Create TF1 object (with symbolic expression like "0.5 * (sin(x) + 1)":
// ...
// TF1 * tf = new TF1("TransferFunction", "0.5 * (sin(x) + 1)", -10., 10.);
// ...
// IMPORTANT, the name of TF1 object MUST be "TransferFunction".
// 2) Add this function into a hist's list of functions:
// ...
// TList * lof = hist->GetListOfFunctions();
// if (lof) lof->Add(tf);
// ...
// It's also possible to use your own function and pass it into TF1, please read
// TF1 documentation to learn how.
//
// This macro is to be compiled: TF1 is extremely slow with CINT's function
// as an argument.
