Dialog Menu - Match Background App

[stupomer]

Hi Gintaras,
I am using the menu's in a dialog (see example below from a different post) which I am hanging on another app window. I would like to be able to make the background of the menu match the parent application better - either by specifying the color or making transparent like the menu. I have been going through the different styles but without success. Any advice?
Thanks a million, as always!
