Default Alpha not working right

For some reason after this last patch, my windows are all somewhere around 50%-70% alpha when I have them set at 100%. When I go to 50% I can hardly see them at all. I can't ever get a totally opaque window, they are always fairly see through and it makes it really hard to read chat boxes. This appears to be throughout the entire UI (using AYA) but when I load up my alt which uses the default UI, the windows are all fine and you can't see through them at all. Anyone have any idea what setting I have to change to get the alpha working right? Thanks in advance.

In options->display try moving the window transparency and fade-to transparency down and then up to 100%.

Well it was a good idea, but didn't work in this case. I reset my transparency in options but everything's still the same. Is there something in the code somewhere that sets the min/max transparency of the entire UI? That seems to be what's happening.

There are some options in your UI_character_server.ini file that controls alpha, like GlobalAlpha. You could try renaming that file and see if that fixes it.
