Use the backgroundPixel property to change the background color of an object(glossary) when the bit depth of the screen is 8 bits (256 colors) or less.

The backgroundPixel property specifies which entry in the [[color table]] is used for an object's background color. It is similar to the backgroundColor property, but is specified as an entry in the current color table, rather than as a color reference.

The color table can be set by changing the colorMap property.
