Hi,

Please try opening the attached gif in a photo/image viewer - it is just a 
translucent rotated rectangle. Now import the attached gif into Squeak. Does 
a bluish background appear behind the rotated rectangle? On notebooks, tilt 
the screen forward to see it clearly. When looking at it directly, the blue 
background appears to fade in and fade out as you move the morph from top to 
bottom.

It is all Squeak magic :-). The magic works on Squeakland plugin, 3.9 and 3.10 
images on Linux (3.7-7) and Mac VMs (3.8). I don't know if Win32 VMs also 
show the same effect. Can someone confirm, please? Thanks.

The gif was produced from a rotated rounded rectangle in Squeak 3.9 after 
filing in the patches in

Some bugs are really fun .. Subbu
