Yes there is a problem in that you cannot make a partially-transparent shadow with this. I'm not sure if perhaps one of the other compositing operators (ATOP?) will produce the desired result. All I can say for sure is that OVER must produce the colored glyphs or you will break everything, and that SOURCE is currently useless so it makes sense to change what it does. -- cairo mailing list [email protected] https://lists.cairographics.org/mailman/listinfo/cairo
