Page Fade Doesn't Work As It Should

Scrivener Scrivener for Windows

Hi everyone. Hope you’re all doing great.
I’ve been using Scrivener for a while now and it’s been very great, but there’s one issues that keeps on bothering me. Whenever I start to write in composition mode and try to fade the page. I find that both the page and the image behind it start to fade as well, until suddenly I find myself staring at my desktop icons with my Scrivener’s project words right above them. It’s so strange and annoying honestly. If anyone has any tips, I’d be forever grateful.
Sincerely,
Lamyaa

it depends on your background
Scenarios: Paper Fade

  1. Project Settings: A Background Image from your computer or the project has been chosen for Composition Mode- Paper Fade affects the opacity of the paper your text is on, but NOT the background image. The background image will be shown preferentially over any texture background chosen in the Options Panel IF BOTH have been selected.
  2. Options Panel: A texture background image for Composition Mode has been chosen from the Options Panel with no Image option chosen in Project Settings- [Chosen in Options > Appearance > Composition Mode > Colors > Screen Background and choose a texture (image which will repeat).] In this setting, the paper fade option affects BOTH the background AND the paper the text is on. Ultimately, this will reveal whatever is on the monitor screen behind BOTH the background texture and the Document text revealing the underlying background with the text floating over it. When making changes with the slider, there can be a slight delay before the change occurs.
