## 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.
## libjsoncpp.so.11: cannot open shared object file
**Problem:** On systems with newer versions of `jsoncpp` (1.8.3 and up) you will get an error along the lines of
```
polybar: error while loading shared libraries: libjsoncpp.so.11: cannot open shared object file
```
when running polybar.
**Workaround:** You have to recompile polybar against the new library. It is possible that recompilation fails with the following error:
```
error: ‘Reader’ is deprecated: Use CharReader and CharReaderBuilder instead [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]
```
If this happens, you have to apply the https://github.com/jaagr/i3ipcpp/pull/4 patch to the `i3ipcpp` submodule.
