Drawing semi-transparent lines in RB....

["Theodore H. Smith" <delete at elfdata dot com>]

Is there an inbuilt way to draw a 1-pixel wide semi-transparent line  
in RB?

Basically, set the opacity to 50% or something like that.

What I want is this, a 3 pixel wide line. The middle pixel 100%  
opaque, and the other two 50% opaque.

Any idea how?

I could do it myself with a bit of graphics work per-pixel. But it's  
slow and I wondered if there is an inbuilt way...
