Oh no. The better method is to draw one time with the fg colors and draw <int> times with the fgsh color with successive +1+1 offsets. This looks goods if the fgsh colour is well chosen. If we use GetShadow(fg) to get the fgsh colour, then with some colors as black the fgsh is really bad (it is ok with white). Also it seems that the bg have to be taken in account. Does someone has a "good" algo to compute the fgsh from the fg colours (and maybe also the bg colour). Olivier -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
