Hi folks,
I'd like to draw some reverse text but I can't figure out how to do it. My screen background is black with some white text. In order to reverse the text I can set the text.SetColor to black but how do I set the background of the drawable to white? Is this possible?

The text doesn't have a background, you'll have to draw a rectangle behind it.

That was quick! Thanks. I'll do that.

If you want the whole window to be white, pass an sf::Color instance to the sf::RenderWindow::Clear() function.
