As you can change the background color EditText1

[desof]

I do not get to change the background color property for the control EditText1 ...
I do not think that there is no property to do so ...

The EditText background is actually a nine patch image. It is not possible to just change its color. You can replace the whole image.

I put a panel behind the EditText box and color the panel. This will make the EditText box look that color. The only problem with that is the cursor. The cursor color oftentimes is set to white, so if you set the box behind to white then there is no cursor. I set the box to Dark Gray... and the EditText textcolor to DEFAULT.

That trick doesn't work on my ZTE Blade Android 2.2.2:
EditText is white and opaque.

However it does work on Jiayu JY-G4S Android 4.2.2:
EditText is completely transparent.

Everything tends to turn into a Tower of Babel over time. Modifications, and additions, and mutations... and you end up with 8700 phones and an impossibility of programming so that all phones work with all software.

Microsoft operating systems went through the same mess.
