Project Member Reported by shrike@chromium.org, Dec 6 2017

The native Mac toolbar background is slightly translucent. The translucency is missing in MacViews.

shrike@ the toolbar in Cocoa is showing as a constant 242/255 white (per Digital Color Meter) to me no matter what background it's on. Do you know if this is dependent on a setting?

Hello lgrey@,

The toolbar and tabs are a constant color (though that color changes depending on foreground/background status of the window). The translucent part is the area above/behind the tabs. It's an NSVisualEffectView with a mostly opaque layer over it to give a hint of what's behind the window.

Applying M-68 milestone per email discussion with ellyjones@. Pls change it if milestone is incorrectly applied.

MacViews triage: let's target this at M-68. sdy@, can you take a look at this?

Sadly (I think) the translucent background is not part of the GM2 spec (at least last time I read it). So this is potentially work that need not be done.

Pls mark the bug as fixed if CL is landed in trunk and nothing else is pending. Thank you.

sdy@: Question from recently merged issue: "Is there an extension API that can be utilized to bring this behavior back?"

Maybe you have an answer :) Thanks.
Unfortunately there isn't. Supporting this would require some changes to Views, the UI framework used in the redesign. We discussed it a bunch and ended up not putting in the time to do it before the launch. Implementing it in the future isn't out of the question.
Okay, thanks for your feedback, sdy@.
Sure. It'd definitely be nice to have.
