• Background is an option for cells that determines the background color to use for cells and buttons.
• You can use this option to specify the background color of notebooks, cells, or individual characters. • The setting for Background must be specified in terms of CMYKColor, GrayLevel, Hue, or RGBColor. • The default setting in graphics functions is BackgroundAutomatic, which produces a white background on most output devices. • In Text cells, BackgroundNone draws no background rectangle around the text and BackgroundAutomatic draws a background rectangle in the same color as the background for the whole plot. • In a cell, the background color is used only for the region inside any cell frame. The space determined by CellFrameMargins is colored even if CellFrame False. • See also: Prolog, FontColor.
