Hi Thomas, I did take a look at simple slides, and in their documentation, there is no "plain" background. All the backgrounds have some shape/color to it. That may be possible, but I couldn't tell just by spending 3-4 min skimming the documentation. As it is something very natural to want (a plain background), I assumed that it was either not supported without a hack, or too hard to figure out.
