Bug Report

Hey, not really a bug but is there a way to make label backgrounds transparent?

Im trying to make an app with a .png background and the text labels were a bit annoying

Expected Behaviour

Text which has no background, only pure text, like this sentence

Actual Behaviour

the text not matching with the background

Any error messages produced by appJar

no error messages, it just doesnt look good

Hi @kristof2020FaE, it's not possible for Labels to be 'transparent' in tkinter/appJar.

However, you could tell the labels not to 'stick; to the sides of the GUI, so you don't get that whole grey bar. Have a read of this: http://appjar.info/pythonWidgetLayout/#setting-stretchiness
