Allowing the background of the Grid/Graph to show through a transparent title bar

If you set the background of the title bar to transparent, the background fill of the Grid/Graph shows through. For example, note that the title bar in the following Grid/Graph is shaded, left to right, from black to white.

If you change the background of the title bar to Transparent and select a dark gray for the background of the Grid/Graph container, you can see the dark gray of the container at the right of the Grid/Graph, as well as in the title bar, in the sample below.
