Is there any way to set a widget's opacity in PyGTK?
I know there's a function for windows:
gtk.Window.set_opacity(0.85)
but there seems to be no equivalent for arbitrary widgets.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help.

A:
For setting up per-pixel alpha, see
gtk.gdk.Screen.get_rgba_colormap(). For making non-toplevel windows translucent, seegtk.gdk.Window.set_composited().

That will still depend on it being a widget that has its own GdkWindow

No if you'd like to set per-pixel alpha channel. This would be very difficult to implement correctly, however.

It might also be worth looking into pygtkglext for fancier widget stuff.
