TaharezLook translucency

The blue background of TaharezLook windows is very translucent almost fully see-thru.

- is it normal?

- how can I decrease the translucency of that background ? Should I modify the look and feel file somehow ?

At least in the samplebrowser of current mercurial default branch I did not notice any transparency with TaharezLook Demos.
Check proprty reference for what options are available: http://cegui.org.uk/static/TaharezLookP ... rameWindow
If it's not the alpha property, maybe a transparent color is used, or it's inherited from parent window.
You can set such properties either in a layout for individual windows or in the TaharezLook looknfeel for all the windows. During runtime would work too ofc.

Ok. Got it to work. Basically CEGUI doesn't set one of the render states in beginrender(). The "host" game is tinkering with that state but it's not accounted for in the CEGUI renderer.
