- Hi folks.
- I'm just trying to pretty up an application of mine that accepts
- icons dragged in from the File Viewer. What I would like to do is ghost
- the icon image as it enters the Icon Well in the same way the the File
- Viewer shelf does.
- I have tried various combinations of compositing, with alpha,
- compositing gray boxes over top, etc., and I can't seem to duplicate the
- effect exactly right. Can anyone tell me the secret??? Pretty please?
- (NeXT??)
