Sorry again, but it has a drawback I found now that I was composing my graphs. This exclusion area is meant to be layed on top of another graph, but unfortunately root fills the upper part in white rather than leaving it transparent. So I get the exclusion area once I lay it on top of the data the latter is covered. :( So this does not work out yet. If you have an idea how that could be accomplished I'd be thankful.
