how to set background color in pygame code example
Example 1: how to change the window colour in pygame
import pygame
pygame.init() #initialize pygame
SCREEN_WIDTH = 600 # width (in px)
SCREEN_HEIGHT = 800 # height (in px)
WIN = pygame.display.set_mode((SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT)) # creates a screen of 600px X 800px
RED_VALUE = 255 # should be from 0 - 255
GREEN_VALUE = 255 # should be from 0 - 255
BLUE_VALUE = 255 # should be from 0 - 255
while True:
pygame.display.update() # updates the screen
WIN.fill(RED_VALUE,GREEN_VALUE,BLUE_VALUE) # this is going to be white in color
Example 2: how to set background color of an image to transparent in pygame
image = pygame.image.load("Your file location")
image.set_colorkey((0, 0, 0)) # If your bg color is black for the image
Example 3: how to make a backround color in pygame
#getting pygame and another library we need for setup
import pygame, sys
#setup(for starting the pygame i'm pretty sure)
pygame.init()
#making the screen
width = 1280
height = 960
screen=pygame.display.set_mode((width,height))
#this is the color I want to use. you can change it for a different color using a different tutorial
backGroundColor=pygame.Color("LIGHTBLUE")
#to make the background always work
while True:
#more setup using the special library which is to not give you an error if you quit the code
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type==pygame.QUIT:
pygame.quit()
sys.exit
break
#over here you color the screen
screen.fill(backGroundColor)
#setup once again(making it go on i think)
pygame.display.flip()
#this code was first not tested and i was curious to see if it worked so i ran the code to find out that it was not working lol and then changed it
