Thank you for the element info.
What was odd is that maroon color is solid but the top section is translucent and the font color is different. I didn't do that. it "seemed" to change after the update - well i noticed it was changed as soon as Music Bee started after the update. I made the screen image shortly before the update because i started a question about adding the album cover to that section. But if you don't know anything about an update making panels look different than no doubt i did something. I also did not understand that panel is different in "Now playing" Anyway i think there are enough places to put the album cover, not to want it there. But it did get me into the settings of that panel which i didn't know before. Your note also gets me I little deeper into customizing the UI so thanks for the nugget.
