Find this annoying? Here\u2019s how to disable wallpaper tinting in windows on Mac.<\/p>\n<p>As design decisions go, wallpaper tinting is a weird one. Transparent menus and sidebars are easy to understand. They show the color from whatever is below the window.<\/p>\n<p>But wallpaper tinting takes up the color from the wallpaper, no matter if there are other windows below.

Disabling the window tinting feature will take care of it, though.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at the screenshot below to see the stark difference.
