</div>I really don't think so.<br>
I can't work on it, and I didn't received any help by someone who<br>
would like to patch GTK+ system tray (this is the biggest issue with<br>
RGBA colormaps due to an old freedesktop spec thats need to be<br>
updated)<br>
<br>
If someone (Mirco Muller or Neil Patel) would like to patch Ubuntu's<br>
GTK+ and add the modern code... but well, I don't think they will.<br>

</div></div></blockquote></div><br>There's too much for myself to program as well, and I would need to learn the architecture to implement anything... Either way, I'll be unable to do it, too much I'm unfamiliar with. In RGBA enabled themes through, could you set a short gradient to start at 100% then fade into semitransparency for a smooth blend, correct? <br>
<br>In the meantime I've been looking at Murrine and it's drawing routines. Next week I'll be going on a short vacation, and scanning my designs for what I sketched as the Kin interface; I'd like to try to incorperate some kith/kin-ish features into the gnome panels (particularly the wireline). Would the panels support RGBA in Murrine?<br>
<br>I know I'm asking quite a bit, I'd just like to see where all this could go. It's probably a good thing I'm not curious about the garbage disposal unit in my sink too, or I'd be typing a lot slower...<br>
