iTunes-type alternate colored lines in scrolling list field

[valetia at mac.com]

Hi Eric,

The stack looks great! However, the textHeight and patterns still don't seem
to line up perfectly.

You'll see it if you scroll to the bottom of the list (line 200)...the text
isn't exactly in the middle of the colored lines anymore...is this issue
solvable?

Thanks!

Valetia
