Question

In my activity I try to make it transparent and with a 9 patch corner design , but it still showing a black color at the corner there, anyone know how to get rid of it ?

What I try to do here is Non transparent (normal) Activity A with start a new transparent activity B as shown as below image but the 9patch background with corner design not fully transparent.

Here’s my 9patch

Activity XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView
