Question

Eu tenho esse código (adaptado depgfplot: Preencha entre enquanto inclui a função de decoração):

%https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/671424/pgfplot-fill-between-while-including-decoration-function
\documentclass[tikz, border=1cm]{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.18}
\usepgfplotslibrary{fillbetween}
\usetikzlibrary{decorations.markings}

\begin{document}
    \begin{tikzpicture}
        \begin{axis}[
            axis lines=center,
            xmin=0, xmax=12.5,
            ymin=0, ymax=15,
            ]
            \fill[blue!60] (7,7.8)--(8.3,7.8)--(7,9.5)--cycle;
            \draw[violet,line width=3pt] (7,7.5)--(7,10);
            \filldraw[brown!40,draw=blue,line width=2pt] (6,6.5)--(5.5,7.5)--(8.5,7.5)--(8,6.5)--cycle; 
            \node at (6.3,7.2) () {\tiny \LaTeX};
            \draw[name path=line] (0,0) -- (12,0);
            \addplot[
            name path=plot, 
            cyan,
            domain=0:12,
            preaction={decorate},
            samples=100,
        %   decoration={markings, mark=between positions 0.05 and 1 step (1/12)*\pgfdecoratedpathlength with {\arrow{latex}}}, % commenta questa linea se non vuoi le frecce                   
            ] {.1*sin(3*x*180/pi)+7};
            \addplot[fill=cyan!40] fill between[of=line and plot,overlay];
        \end{axis}    
    \end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

que produzem esta saída:

Quero esconder a parte do barco debaixo d'água. Eu tentei com opaque, opacity=,..., mas sem resultados desejados.

Answer 1

Como foi observado emestas perguntas e respostas, você precisa definir a camada para os itens desenhados com o fill betweenoperador.

Omanual explica que as coisas desenhadas com o fill betweenoperador são, por padrão, colocadas em uma camada que fica "entre a camada principal e a camada de fundo". Então, você pode usar fill between/on layer=mainpara mudar isso para a camada onde todas as outras coisas são desenhadas. Eu também acrescentaria axis on top:
