Yeah, but it is really tricky...

In fact, it is a hidden function in AGS...

It is sooo hidden I can only give you a hint...

Do you mean the 'text box' GUI object?
AFAIK, they're always transparent, so you have to change the background image of the GUI it's on to have the colour you want, where you want it. Or, create a non-clickable button, set its image to a block of the colour you want, and place it 'behind' the text box.

If you meant the white box that pops up on Display() commands, I think you have to use a custom Text Window GUI.

Customized Text Windows! (if you don't want those wierd picture borders just choose a blank image for all of them... :o)
