# Adding Background Color to Table Elements

This task explains how to add the BackgroundColor attribute to various table elements. Elements that support padding are:

- table
- column
- row
- entry

To add a background color to a supported table element:

1. Right-click the desired table element and select Add Attribute > BackgroundColor.
   The BackgroundColor attribute is added to the element without a value, as shown below.
2. Double-click the text "NO VALUE" to open the editor.
3. Select the desired value from the list of configured colors. Optionally, you can enter a HEX color code using the format `#RRGGBB` using integers between 00 and FF.
