It is an "issue" indeed for certain styles of themes I tried to
createmyself too. So it is not a specific theme bug, but a way the
control just has a default background color different from the cell. Try
setting the same color to either the control background or the window
background, I don't remember.

I did raise the issue time ago and apparently the control "draws
correctly" but limits the color freedom quite a bit or you get this
"panda effect".
Only the cells are painted the rest "shines through".

I was just fighting that yesterday while creating a shiny new theme....
