## Setting Module Backgrounds when using Gradients
**Problem:** When you use a gradient as your polybar background, explicitly setting any module's background color to whatever you have set as `background-0`, either through the `-background` setting or the `%{B}` formatting tag, will not change the background color at all.
**Workaround:** If you want to explicitly set a module's (or parts of its) background to `background-0`, use a color that is almost the same. E.g. if `background-0` is `#FFFF00` use `#FFFF01`.
This behaviour was introduced in [`#831`](https://github.com/jaagr/polybar/pull/831), to resolve the issue described in [`#759`](https://github.com/jaagr/polybar/issues/759). There is no way to resolve this without some major code changes to the renderer.
