Hi there,
As the author of one of the patches that was not approved, Alexandre told me that he felt that the whole X11DRV_AlphaBlend needed to be rewritten, maybe not even found in that module. If i recall correctly there was worries about how it was starting to duplicate code from the DIB drawing functions.

Hi,
I'm trying to get an application running as best as possible under Wine and have found that X11DRV_AlphaBlend does not handle Bitmaps which are not a DIB Section.
I have also found that a number of people have submitted some fixes to X11DRV_AlphaBlend:
http://www.nabble.com/(re-resend)-x11drv%3A-implement-X11DRV_AlphaBlend-for-... 2. http://archives.free.net.ph/message/20080602.110501.ba1ea794.el.html
Is there a reason for these not being accepted?
I have started doing my own patch but wish to ensure the maximium liklyhood of the patch being accepted.
I am taking a slightly different approach of trying to convert the Bitmap into a DIB Section first, which would hopefully minimise any changes.
Does any one have any advice on how to approach this fix?
Thanks Damian
