gdkScreenGetRgbaColormap: gdkScreenGetRgbaColormap
Description
Gets a colormap to use for creating windows or pixmaps with an
alpha channel. The windowing system on which GTK+ is running
may not support this capability, in which case NULL
will
be returned. Even if a non-NULL
value is returned, its
possible that the window's alpha channel won't be honored
when displaying the window on the screen: in particular, for
X an appropriate windowing manager and compositing manager
must be running to provide appropriate display.Usage
