Hi All,
Some of you may have read some of my recent mails about my work to refresh the wine icons with Tango versions, as demonstrated in this screenshot: http://www.airwebreathe.org.uk/alpha-tango-icons.png
Achieving this task isn't a simple icon replacement job, because of the inability of wine to handle the alpha channel correctly in two key areas: HICONS, and IImageLists. I've patched some of the problems, but others are roadblocked by shortcomings in x11.drv's BitBlt/StretchBlt which (usually) strip the alpha channel.
This leaves me a bit stuck: AJ rightly won't accept any hacks or workabouts, which leaves me with the choice to give up (for the time being), or try and fix x11.drv myself.
I'm pretty sure that fixing the blts would be a major job, but I thought I'd write and ask for some comments. Is it so hard as I think? Does anyone have any ideas what would be required?
Thanks Joel
