I looked through the guide you just posted by couldn't figure it out. Thanks, David Comments Hi Susan, By any chance, do you know how to fix this issue: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rq6f9a02s5xtc3z/iOS%20Simulator%20Screen%20shot%20Nov%209%2C%202013%2C%203.24.52%20PM.png There's supposed to be a menu there, however it shows up as having a white background when it should be clear (You can't really see but the text and all of that is there but it has a white text color).

I found something that wasn't clearColor that should have been. Maybe in BT_utilities. Do a search for whiteColor and see if you can find it. I may have also had to change the rowBackgroundColor. Good luck and sorry I couldn't be more specific! Comments I was just working on this last night. I am away from my Mac right now. I found something that wasn't clearColor that should have been.

Will you email me and I will send you the file when I can? I was working in the Menu Image Advanced. Comments Wait... I think I had to add a method to make this work.
