I think I found a solution to this -- just to let anybody else with
the same problem know.

It seems that when a Panel, or a TitleWindow has it's alpha attribute
set to 1.0 (fully opaque), the drop shadow appears solid as well. When
set to any lower value, the drop shadow appears as intended.

Does anybody know if this is a bug? I can imagine a lot of people want
fully opaque components with gradient styled drop shadows.

Thanks,

Brian
