# backgroundStyle

The background style of the child view that contains names and avatars.

## Declaration

```swift
var backgroundStyle: SWAttributionView.BackgroundStyle { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion If you don’t specify a background style, the system chooses one automatically. In general, SWAttributionView.BackgroundStyle.color looks best on monochrome backgrounds, while SWAttributionView.BackgroundStyle.material looks better on colored backgrounds.
