Transparent right-click-menu

Hello Community,
I'm using Arch Linux with XFCE 4.14.
How can i get only the right-click-menu and the panel-menu transparent?
To edit the popover-opacity in the settings-xfwm4, all menus are transparent - include
the menus of programs.
Does anyone knows the correct code for the ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css?
I was searching for many hours, but i can't find anything.
Many thanks for your answers.

Re: Transparent right-click-menu

Looking at xfce4-panel, here is what I've found.

The following code:

.xfce4-panel menu  { background-color: transparent; }

...should make all the xfce4-panel menus transparent. And in a way it does, it removes any colors but reverts to the base theme color (not transparent).

The following code:

.xfce4-panel menu  * { background-color: transparent; }

...makes all second-level menus truly transparent, but doesn't affect the initial popup menu.

I'll keep investigating. Just wanted to drop a note as to what I've found so far.
