Transparent undocked menus, WIN7 64bit/NX7.5

Transparent undocked menus, WIN7 64bit/NX7.5

(OP)
Anyone run into this.  When you undock your Assembly/Part navigator windows, and they are not the active windows they become transparent.  I figure this is a Win 7 'feature'.  
But anyone know how to disable this?  I went into personalize, un-checked the transparent box and nothing.

Thank you.

Jackely,

This can be changed mid-session using NX  "Preferences, User Interface..., Layout, Enable Transparency", uncheck the box and either Apply or OK the dialog.

Regards, Joe

Go to...

Preferences -> User Interface -> Layout

...and toggle OFF the 'Enable Transparency' option in the 'Windows Style' section of the dialog.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Thank you gentlemen.  I do appreciate it.

I had poked around, with windows display and inside of NX, but didn't go under User Interface.

Thanks again.
