Help me to stop "Transparency look" of Safari Toolbar?

[MrAverigeUser]

Since Installing El Capitan there is the useless gimmick of a "transparent design" of the menu bar in Safari...
When scrolling a colourful website, the toolbar changes its colour dependent on the colour of the part of the website which would glide "behind the toolbar...

I hate this because it distracts my eyes and I am shure that this costs CPU/GPU activity as well.

In former Versions of OSX this was possible:

you only needed to launch System Preferences, click on Desktop & Screensaver, and then click on the little checkbox there next to “Translucent menu bar.”

But in OSX 10.11 this option does not exist anymore....

EDIT: Finally found the hidden option! This option is now hidden in the "accessibility" menu and named "reduced transparancy" In fact, it reduces translucency to ZERO ! It works! The menu bar is now completely opaque.... as it should be.

On my iPhone this was also possible: I stopped this useless gimmick in the start screen on my iPhone (which means more battery time and less useless activity of the CPU) -

I'm on Sierra, but I think it was the same for El Capitan, check "Reduce transparency" in the Accessibility>Display System Preference.

@CoastalOR

THANK YOU very much!


Found that also just before you posted this and edited my posting.
Searching again by using the correct term "translucency" instead of "transparency" showed me the way to the link I added already in between...

Thanks again, my eyes are very happy now: no more distraction at all.

cheers
