I am trying to create a "simple" Nav Bar that is essentally transparent (or has the page background color) with Black Text. It just doesn't want to happen.

I am using the trial version, so are there limitations that would prevent me from doing this?

I drag the Nav Bar template from the Design Gallery; the free one has black letters on a rust colored background. I attempt to make the background color of the buttons the same as the background color of the page but when I drag the color onto the buttons the text also changes color and everything disappears.

I have opened the Nav Bar properties and used the Pop-up Menu Style to attempt a change as well but that does virtually nothing.

The Nav Bar tutorial video is nice but I am still unable to get over this initial hurdle.

Can someone tell me what I might be doing wrong?
