    Yes, the new panel was designed to work with GlobalMenu. If you use that then the panel background will be fully transparent.

    If you are fine editing gtkrc file then you can find the Panel section in gtkrc file and uncomment (remove all #) from the panel, widget and class lines after the Panel section.

    Alternatively if you install GlobalMenu then you won't face this issue. Hope this helps.

    Actually I'm planning to make it an option in the installation script which installs the corresponding gtkrc file upon querying the user.
