Exause me, the new textlayout framework could set backgroundColor of font?

There is no backgroundColor property for TLF text, but you can set the container to have a color underneath the text, or with a bit of fiddling find the bounds of a line or character and draw a background color object yourself.

Can you give us some details on how you'd like to use a background color?
