Toolbar button background colour

[Fractal Cat]

Hi,

I want to know how to make part of a toolbar button transparent so that the background colour that shows through is the colour according to whatever Windows theme you're using.

Thanks

FC.

One of them seems fit your needs to make a region (the toolbar) transparent:
