StyleContext.getBackgroundColor

void getBackgroundColor(gtk.types.StateFlags state, out gdk.rgba.RGBA color)

Gets the background color for a given state.

This function is far less useful than it seems, and it should not be used in newly written code. CSS has no concept of "background color", as a background can be an image, or a gradient, or any other pattern including solid colors.

The only reason why you would call [gtk.style_context.StyleContext.getBackgroundColor] is to use the returned value to draw the background with it; the correct way to achieve this result is to use [gtk.global.renderBackground] instead, along with CSS style classes to modify the color to be rendered.

Parameters

`state`	state to retrieve the color for
`color`	return value for the background color

Deprecated

Use [gtk.global.renderBackground] instead.
