Windows 0.5.6 can show an opaque gray/white rectangle around the recording controls. The shared HUD/Recorder window starts resizable with the default native backing/frame, then disables resizing after its first paint. Ordinary HUD/Recorder switches also reset the native backdrop even when preparation was never active.

Create the overlay with an explicit transparent background and fixed native dimensions from the outset, with the Windows resize frame disabled. Apply and remove preparation acrylic/vibrancy only when crossing the preparation-mode boundary. Programmatic sizing, recording controls, and the opaque editor window retain their existing behavior.

Validation: 75 focused Node tests pass for renderer creation, window-controller policies and preparation layout; both changed CommonJS modules pass node --check.

Windows visual validation is still pending: cold start, automatic and manual preparation paths, start/pause/resume/stop, and returning to the HUD. This environment cannot run the Windows compositor, so the draft does not claim the photographed artifact has been visually eliminated. No app version or release is changed.
