Hi Richard,

If my memory serves me well (and sometimes I ought to
fire the lazy bastard) this is a known problem, and on
the fix-list for Revolution 2.1
In the meantime, stick with the standard white or
striped background -- Revolution will give it the
right one, depending on the stack style :
- palette/modal/modeless gets stripes
- toplevel is white, unless you set the
backgroundPattern of the stack to false [*]

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.

[*] this is because in the Aqua-HIG, documents have a
white background, and Revolution assumes that a
topLevel stack is a document, not a palette or a
dialog box.
