Hi,

I have an icon with 16*16 pixels in png format. When I use this icon on
for example any view it is good, but on the coolbar it looks terrible.
Has the coolbar special icon format?

thx in advance

I have seen this too. Seems some SWT widgets don't like PNGs. For
example, MenuItems with PNGs look fine and ToolItems with PNGs look bad.

A workaround is to use the GC class to draw the PNG to an offscreen
image that has the same background color as the Toolbar. GC does render
PNGs properly using drawImage.
