Andre Dietisheim commented on JBIDE-18298:
------------------------------------------

I am using StyledText since StyledText is the only widget where line wrapping and scrollbars work without flaws. StyledText has a white background by default, I thus have to set the background color to the default background color. Unfortunately in MacOS groups have a different background color than the default:

!macos-groups-background.png!

I thus try to make the StyledText transparent rather than set them a fixed background color: JBIDE-16913. 
When doing this I then hit this bug here that only exists for RHEL 6.5 apparently. 
I'll thus do the following:

{code}
if (Platform.getWS() == Platform.WS_GTK) {
	// RHEL 6.5 cannot display transparent pixels in images (neither png, gif, bmp, etc.)
	styledText.setBackgroundImage(OpenShiftImages.TRANSPARENT_PIXEL_IMG);
} else {
	styledText.setBackground(styledText.getDisplay().getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_WIDGET_BACKGROUND));		
}
{code}
