On Fedora 37 and GNOME 43, how do I set the background to a solid color using Setup?
I have found command line instructions. I want to use Setup as I did once upon a time in a galaxy far, far away.

Using any image editing program, for example Krita, I create a 10 by 10 pixel image in the color that I want and then save that out as a smaller file format file.
Then inside GNOME Setup I select that as my background / wallpaper.
I don’t now if you mean settings/setup same thing ?!
To make it clickable you best install the dconf editor and search for background:
In picture-options you have to select “none” to be free of a background image.
In “color shading type” you can set whether you want a solid color or a gradient (horizontal/vertical).
Back on background you can select the primary & secondary colors and put the value you like (sorry no color picker included).
Sad but true, not really user friendly

My reading of the GNOME issues in their GitLab is that solid colors were removed because it was too hard to maintain the code that enabled that feature. Go figure.

I guess that is what you talking about, right?
