Gnome Flashback Metacity: Gradient/Box Shadow on Panels gives incorrect black background

[Brett Bogert]

In Gnome Flashback Metacity Vivid 15.04 Gradient/Box Shadow gives incorrect black background.

Theme used is Vertex pr Vertex-Dark for Gtk3.14. Panel background should be gray in color not black.

Problem is related to using Gradient/Box Shadow in the theme code for the panels.

I am opening this bug report at the theme designers request as he states "that is does not work as
it should and he cannot style it properly".

I will attach 2 screenshots of the problem. Note the black background on the panels where they should be gray.
