Someone on stackoverflow reccommended I switch to the StageStyle to style.TRANSPARENT (which I swear I tried before, maybe in my program and not the test code I showed above) which does indeed let it be transparent background, but unfortunately removes resizing and the top draggable portion of the window. 😞 Guess I'll try to re-create the functionality I need (the dragging and resizing) through my own code in the Fragment while setting the StageStyle to Styles.TRANSPARENT
