I'm trying to design a good TrayItem icon, but finding that I can't
use alpha channels. Transparency works, but true alpha does not.
The easy way out would be to use the eyedropper and select the color
of the system tray and composite my icon onto that. But this is an
evil solution as the background should not be blue on Windows 2000,
and will likely not look good in Vista, and XP can already theme as
it is. So is there a way to get a rough estimate of the tray
background color at runtime? I realize it is not a solid color. But M
$ items seem to make it work, so there must be a way.
