Had that problem in the Wacom calibration screen. I wanted the elements to be opaque but on a translucent dark background. It wasn't possible without resorting to hacks (such as having 2 windows, one translucent with the black background, one with the opaque elements on a transparent background). Do you mind filing a bug about that? Cheers _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
