I’m trying to see if I can make an NSPopoverMBS transparent, but the only luck I’m having is making the contents of the popover transparent, instead of the background.
Anyone have any ideas?
I don’t suppose you can set a background colour with an alpha value, can you?
So far I’ve only been able to make controls inside the popover transparent, but not the popover itself.
The whole thing?
vc.View.alphaValue = 0.5
this would make the whole thing half transparent.
That makes the content inside the popover transparent, but does not make the popover itself transparent.

What I’m looking for:
That is a bit more difficult.
The Container used here is not transparent.
You’d need to use a CustomNSViewMBS as background there and have it return false in IsOpaque event and then draw something with alpha channel.
Then you could maybe get it transparent there.
Of you want the transparant vibrancy effect, just at a NSVisualEffectView layer.
Unfortunately both solutions seem to be over my pay grade, so to speak. Was hoping there was something simple I had missed.
