  Richard, that's for when the FM jumps into the Viewport. Rich is talking about the background of the FM in normal operation.
  
  I feel your pain. I don't know why that was "enhanced". Now there's this annoying FM that seems to draw my attention all of the time. It certainly was nicer before, when we could have the same background as the viewport.

    Dan, Richard & Rich,
    
    My FMT in normal position & mode is a solid color.
    
    The Flyout is transparent. (It can be set as a solid background as has been mentioned.)
    
    So I guess I'm not seeing any abe-normal behavior.

      Not talking about the flyout portion..
      The "Docked" main FM..
      Thats what I want transparent...
      In '07.. You could change the color of it to anything, or set it transparent..
      In '08.. you can't even change the color of it... let alone make it transparent.
      
      Well.. technically it's NOT really transparent... It just uses the background color/gradient, etc so it looks transparent..

        That is a shame. It's a nice option to have. Still we did have problems with reading the text in the middle of the FM as our company background had a grey bit there, so I guess with a solid colour you're guarenteed legibility.

        I agree, we need the option back:
        
        "Match graphics area and FeatureManager backgrounds "
