Background not fully transparent in Davinci

Just moved from Premier Pro to Davinci 18.6 . When I drag a shape element onto the timeline , the background is not fully transparent . I can see a 95% transparent grey mask over the top of the clip below in the timeline. What am I doing wrong? Tried several elements and they all show the same sort of not fully transparent mask over the clip
