Background

Usage

Background is an option which specifies the background color to use.


Notes

Background is an option for graphics functions, Text, Cell and ButtonBox.
• The setting for Background in graphics functions must be a CMYKColor, GrayLevel, Hue or RGBColor directive.
• The default setting in graphics functions is Background->Automatic, which produces a white background on most output devices.
• In Text, Background->None draws no background rectangle around the text and Background->Automatic draws a background rectangle in the same color as the background for the whole plot.
• In a cell, the background is used only for the region inside any cell frame.
• New in Version 2; modified in 3.
