Comment 5 László Németh 2026-05-22 00:11:02 UTC
In the case of transparent page background, now Web View (and Draft View) paint the margin area, solving this issue (transparent background color) and Bug 98598 (transparent background image).

@Rawleyl: Thanks for your feedback! Fortunately the fix for the transparent page background color worked for the transparent page background image, too.
