Arrow backgrounds in Classic Grid album slideshow

Backlight 4, 5 & 6 Support
#1

Hello. I am using Backlight 3 and am currently working on a standard Classic Grid album. I am having trouble getting the album to fully obey my album template settings at this location:
Album Settings > Photo Presentation > Slideshow > Arrows Background-color.

Let’s say I set the Slideshow Background-color to solid (non-transparent) white, and select solid white for the Arrows Background-color. With these settings, the slideshow shows the arrow backgrounds in grey, until I cursor over them. When I do cursor over them, there appears to be a sunken square where the background color would be. There is analogous behavior with other color choices for the slideshow background and the arrow backgrounds. For instance, if I choose solid yellow for the arrow backrounds, those backgrounds look yellow-grey in the slideshow.

Interestingly, if I keep the background color as solid white, and select fully transparent white (rgba(255,255,255,0)) as the Arrows Background-color, the arrow backgrounds become even darker, and nothing changes when I move the cursor over the them.

I’d like to be able to make the arrow backgrounds completely invisible, with just the arrows showing, but am having trouble getting there.

Best,
Walter

I think you’ll need to use custom css to achieve this.
It looks like there’s a built-in background color of rgba(30,30,30,.6)

try this in your custom css file:

.fancybox-button {
background: white;
}

if that doesn’t achieve what you want, please post a link to an album so we can take a closer look.

Thank you, Rod! That worked.
