## Notes

JavaFX doesn't support WebViews with transparent backgrounds yet. See [JDK-8090547](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8090547).

This workaround enables transparent WebView backgrounds but comes with a big performance penalty since the whole WebView is repainted,

rather than just dirty areas.

On 2021-07-03, the CSR [JDK-8269848](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8269848) was opened to officially fix this
