@uzi You can’t change the design of OW native windows.
You can change some of the settings in the manifest (transparent or not), or you can define if you want to enable the transparency slider or not, but you can’t change the display of a native window with CSS.

My window is set as “transparent” in the manifest, but still appears with a black background.
This is the manifest declaration

		"CollectionWindow": {
			"file": "Files/collection.html",
			"transparent": true,
			"resizable": true,
			"show_in_taskbar": true,
			"size": { "width": 1170, "height": 720 },
			"min_size": { "width": 1170, "height": 720 },
			"block_top_window_navigation": true,
			"popup_blocker": true,
			"mute": true,
			"native_window": true,
			"desktop_only": true,
			"use_os_windowing": true
		},

Edit: same behavior if I remove the “use_os_windowing”
