I want to set a picker button borderless and transparent in SwiftUI on macOS.

I tried using .background(), .border() and .opacity() modifiers on the Picker view. However, I can't change the background to a transparent color using .background(), I can't remove the border using .border(), and I can't find a way to change only the background to transparent using .opacity().

Here is my code for the picker:

Picker(selection: .constant(1), label: EmptyView()) {
    Text("1").tag(1)
    Text("2").tag(2)
}
.scaledToFit()

.constant(1) is a placeholder

Currently the picker looks like this:
Current Picker Look

I want it to look like the pickers in the Contacts app on Mac:
Wanted Picker Look

UPDATE (2019-11-30)

After trying all likely modifiers and functions that are applicable to a Picker, I've determined that there is no solution so far. SwiftUI is incomplete as a replacement for storyboards or XIB as of now.

Try to use .background(.gray .opacity(0.3)) this makes the background color opacity and nothing else,I mean the text will remain the same opacity as before.
