Elements with background color. Defines the color of the T-FLEX CAD elements whose color is the same as the current drawing window background. Important to keep in mind that each color in the system has an Id. Altogether there are 256 standard colors (Ids 0-255). It is possible that two colors visual perception is same while the Ids differ. For example, suppose, the background color is set to black with Id equal 0, while the element color is gray 100%, that is also black, however, with Id 226. In this case, the element will not be identified as an element with the background color.
