Take advantage of trayicon transparency in gtk+ 2.16 (2.30 KB, patch)

Description Dan Winship 2009-05-13 15:57:02 UTC 
This changes the notification tray to be fully-transparent if you're
using gtk 2.16 or later. With earlier versions, it creates the round-
cornered box just like before.

This had been a leftover TODO from the original tray code, although I
know Owen has said that he likes the opaque box anyway, so maybe we
don't want this? (I like the transparent version better, modulo the
fact that I don't like the tranlucent panel :-)

Take advantage of trayicon transparency in gtk+ 2.16

Fall back to the old behavior with older gtk.

Well, this all really will take graphics design, but I'm fine with going with this conditionalization for now ... shows off a bunch of work I did anyways :-)

I think there does need to be a comment where the constants are defined explaining that they aren't always used.

Here I'm getting gray rectangles from the top to the bottom of the bar with all GTK programs that have a tray icon. Using GTK+ 2.16.

This was fixed, any system-specific or app-specific bugs should be filed separately.
