Solaris Common Desktop Environment: Advanced User's and System Administrator's Guide

shadowPixmaps Resource

The shadowPixmaps resource directs the desktop to replace the two shadow colors with pixmaps. These pixmaps mix the background color with black or white to simulate top or bottom shadow values. This reduces the number of needed colors by two, since color cells do not need to be allocated for the shadow colors.

Value 

Description 

True 

The desktop creates a topShadowPixmap and bottomShadowPixmap to use instead of the shadow colors.

False 

topShadowColor and bottomShadowColor from the palette are used.

The default value for shadowPixmaps depends on the colorUse resource you have and the hardware support for the display.
