Hi,
Is it really so that there is no mean to make pushbuttons and panels in a GUI transparent without "disturbing" the possible background image in a GUI?

Best regards,

There is no mathworks provided mechanism for it.

I have no information about whether it could be done at the Java level.

The comments here seem to suggest it can be done at the Java level:

For pushbuttons, you can set the cdata property to the underlying image. This is not quite the same as being transparent. I haven't looked at doing this for uipanels and/or frames.

See the example posted here (post 5):
