There is no setVisible(boolean) function.  I presume you mean
setVisibility(), which doesn't take a boolean, but rather takes one of
three enums, but they are radically different from a dimmed disabled
widget.  The options are VISIBLE, INVISIBLE, and GONE, none of which
are dim.  I've had some problems with visibility too recently, but I'm
trying to confine this thread to the OP's topic, which is dimming
disabled widgets.

I'm surprised other people aren't piping in on this.  No one else is
having this problem?
