Description Kevin McGuire CLA 2007-06-15 14:45:36 EDT 
In 3.3 we introduced a one pixel wide highlight treatment to the top and edges of the selected tab.  The highlight gradates to the bottom color.  Each pixel of the edge gradation is lovingly drawn and a color allocated for it.

We should investigate a better solution involving masking and the use of the swt gradated fill call (like we do for the main body of the tab).  This would avoid having to allocated all the intermediate colours for the gradation.

See also bug #185202 which talks about the color allocation problem we now have.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
