I searched the Help->Browse Manual for "color" and came up with SetBackground. Set passed 24 bit number as RGB color of background. which is cryptic to say the least it means (d-SetBackground 0) would set the background to black. (d-SetBackground #x00ff00) turns red and blue off etc. There is a Denemo procedure to get a color from the user, too. (d- SelectColor) which returns a list of r, g and b values in range 0.0-1.0 that would need converting to use with d-SetBackground. HTH Richard
