Hi Peter,

We are reconsidering changes in RadWindow transparency modes, but at present, the only solution I can suggest is to use modified external skins.

I've prepared a sample skin for you, based on our Default skin, as you did not specify which skin you need to modify. I have disabled both inactive window transparency and normal window titlebar transparency. I did not remove the selectors from the stylesheet, just commented them, so you will be able to play with the transparency in case you decide not to fully abandon it.

Do the following:

1. Set the following properties to the window manager:

    EnableEmbeddedBaseStylesheet="false"
    
EnableEmbeddedSkins
="false"
    
Skin="Default"

2. Register the external CSS files in the <head>...</head> of your webpage:

<

link href="../../../Window/Examples/Skinning/Skins/Default/Window.Default.css" rel="stylesheet type="text/css" />
<link href="../../../Window/Examples/Skinning/Skins/Window.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

The inactive window settings are stored in Window.css, while the normal window (a la Vista "Aero") transparency settings are in the Window.Default.css file.

Kind regards,

I'm also having trouble with radwindow's transparency (the classic worked best for our purposes where nothing bled through.)  I've implemented the code in your sample with a custom skin, but if the radwindow overlays a radmenu, the radmenu text still bleeds through. 

Is there any modification that can be made to the radmenu css that will stop it's text from appearing in the open radwindow?

Hello debbie f,

You need to make sure that the RadMenu's z-index is lower than the RadWindow's one. More information on the subject is available in the Controlling absolute positioning with z-index documentation article.
