How to make the background of a Custom Canvas Transparent?

I am making a custom canvas for my program however I am not able to make the background transparent like the Form Object and List Object's background. I tried to use netbeans' UserColorSchema background transparent property and called its paintbackground method, it does not work. I later found out that when the set-background transparent is true UserColorSchema actually does not paint any background it is like doing nothing.

So My problem again, I want the background of my custom canvas transparent (I could see the theme background or whatever is behind). Is it even possible? the custom made canvas looks ugly because of the background and does not fit the other screens.

Thank you very much.
