Is there a way can set the background color for python turtle?

Question

I am trying to set the background color of my turtle graphic, is there a way can set the background color for python turtle?

Answer 1

Use turtle.bgcolor(*args) .

For instance:

import turtle  
turtle.bgcolor("black")

or

from turtle import *
bgcolor("black")

Read the documentation at http://docs.python.org/library/turtle.html#turtle.bgcolor

Answer 2

It sounds like you set the color for your turtle, not your screen. A screen will appear even if you don't set up your screen, but then it's not defined so you can't customize it. If you set up the beginning of your code, then you can customize your screen, for example:

import turtle
wn=turtle.Screen()
wn.bgcolor("black")
wn.title("This is my screen title!")
