Answer 1

The PageNameLabel and PageDescriptionLabel are TNewStaticText components. This component does not support transparency. Though TLabel component, which has similar functionality otherwise, does support transparency (in Unicode version of Inno Setup and with themed Windows only).
So, you can replace those two components with TLabel equivalent. And then you need to make sure, that captions of your new custom components get updated, whenever Inno Setup does update the original components. For these two components, this is quite easy, as they get updated only, when a page changes. So you can update your custom components from CurPageChanged event function.
function CloneStaticTextToLabel(StaticText: TNewStaticText): TLabel;
begin
Result := TLabel.Create(WizardForm);
Result.Parent := StaticText.Parent;
Result.Left := StaticText.Left;
Result.Top := StaticText.Top;
Result.Width := StaticText.Width;
Result.Height := StaticText.Height;
Result.AutoSize := StaticText.AutoSize;
Result.ShowAccelChar := StaticText.ShowAccelChar;
Result.WordWrap := StaticText.WordWrap;
Result.Font := StaticText.Font;
StaticText.Visible := False;
end;
var
PageDescriptionLabel: TLabel;
PageNameLabel: TLabel;
procedure InitializeWizard();
begin
{ ... }
{ Create TLabel equivalent of standard TNewStaticText components }
PageNameLabel := CloneStaticTextToLabel(WizardForm.PageNameLabel);
PageDescriptionLabel := CloneStaticTextToLabel(WizardForm.PageDescriptionLabel);
end;
procedure CurPageChanged(CurPageID: Integer);
begin
{ Update the custom TLabel components from the standard hidden components }
PageDescriptionLabel.Caption := WizardForm.PageDescriptionLabel.Caption;
PageNameLabel.Caption := WizardForm.PageNameLabel.Caption;
end;
Way easier is to change original labels background color:
