Description
Sprite property and system property; determines the background color of the sprite specified by whichSprite

sprite property is equivalent to choosing the background color from the Tools window when the sprite is selected on the Stage. Setting the bgColor
property for the Stage is equivalent to setting the color in the Movie Properties dialog box.

sprite property, but the color value returned is a color object of whatever type has been set for that sprite.
This property can be tested and set.

This example sets the color of the Stage to an RGB value.
Dot syntax:
(the stage).bgColor = rgb(255, 153, 0)

set the bgColor of the stage = rgb(255, 153, 0)
