Hello,
I'm using QgsLayoutItemLabel in a print layout. Everything works fine but 
I'd like some of the texts to have a solid background. I tried the solution 
posted at 
https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/424164/how-to-make-backgrounds-white-for-qgslayoutitems-in-qgis-python-console 
by adding the lines:
custom_text.setBackgroundEnabled(True)
custom_text.setBackgroundColor(QColor(Qt.black))
This didn't make any difference, which is understandable as the user's 
guide doesn't include these methods among those of QgsLayoutItemLabel. I 
really don't know if the post is just wrong (the final comment suggests 
that the proposed solution worked) or if setBackgroundEnabled has been 
deprecated. Any thoughts on whether this feature was included or will be 
included in future versions? 
Thanks.
