Transparent icon in ListIcon when colours are used?

Is there a possibility of having an icon in the ListIconGadget having a transparent background when lndividual line colours are used? At the moment, if I use the pb colour commands, the icon background is white and I'd like to change that if possible.

Thank you.

:?: My icons in ListIconGadgets have transparent backgrounds. I just set their
background color to "transparent" in my icon editor before saving them. Is that
what you mean?

Not quite. I also save them with transparent backgrounds when editing them.

But, when you use the PB gadget colour commands to colour each line in a ListIconGadget individually (or set all the background the same colour), the icon background is white, not transparent to the colour that you set the line or entire background to.

That doesn't happen here.

I need an example, because I don't know what you mean. :oops:

Okay, with the differences in screens, cards, desktops etc, I am not surprised this happens. I am running XP in classic mode (I.e. No skinning)

Here is the screen shot. Notice the white border under the list itemicons on the left? I'm using standard PureBasic colouring commands for the gadget and I have verified that the icon background is transparent.
