No this is WIX 3.8
I notice that the checkbox control, even though is set as transparent shows a
different colour where the text is...
My problem is that I have a light gray background image (created in MS Paint
500 x390 .png) have a side panel image (is a white background with our
corporate logo in upper left hand side) I then have a static control to create
that "line" between the side panel image and the buttons (trying to mimic the
UI of the MSI Welcome screen), launch the bootstrapper and then when the
Welcome/Install page is up I hit the ALT key and all controls EXCEPT for the
images go to the background :(
i.e.
<Window Width="500" Height="390" HexStyle="100a0000"
FontId="0">#(loc.Caption)</Window>
<Font Id="0" Height="-12" Weight="500" Foreground="000000"
Background="FFFFFF">Segoe UI</Font>
<Font Id="1" Height="-24" Weight="500" Foreground="000000">Segoe UI</Font>
<Font Id="2" Height="-18" Weight="500" Foreground="000000"
Background="FFFFFF">Segoe UI</Font>
<Font Id="3" Height="-12" Weight="500" Foreground="000000"
Background="FFFFFF">Segoe UI</Font>
<Font Id="4" Height="-12" Weight="500" Foreground="000000">Segoe UI</Font>
<Page Name="Install">
<Image X="00" Y="00" Width="500" Height="390" ImageFile="Background.png"
Visible="no"/>
<Image X="00" Y="00" Width="493" Height="309"
ImageFile="TITUS_SideBanner.png" Visible="no"/>
<Static X="0" Y="309" Width="495" Height="1" HexStyle="0x00000200L"

foreground/background of controls
FWIW, I've created a UI with wixstdba with a background image. Did have problem
with text that changed (like Action text during install) since I marked all
text blocks to be transparent. I had to give those text blocks a matching
background (had to change the background image to have an area with a solid
color for the text).
Worked fine though. Client was happy. Not sure what root cause of your issues
were. This was with WiX v3.7.

sigh looks like I will have to remove the background image and the side banner
image and cut the side banner image to just use the first 1/3 of the dialog...
too bad, since the UI looked really nice and what management wanted!
