# Fix incorrect page color in night appearance mode

If you’re customizing [`backgroundFill`](https://www.nutrient.io/api/ios/documentation/pspdfkit/renderoptions/backgroundfill) in [`-[PSPDFDocument updateRenderOptionsForType:withBlock:]`][-updaterenderoptionsfortype:withblock:], and then you switch to [`PSPDFAppearanceModeNight`](https://www.nutrient.io/api/ios/documentation/pspdfkitui/pdfappearancemode/night), the page color display is incorrect.

```swift

let document: PDFDocument =...
document.updateRenderOptions(for:.page) { options in
  options.backgroundFill =.red
}

```

This behavior is expected because, if you already have custom document rendering options and you change the current appearance mode, then the new appearance mode’s rendering transformation will be performed on top of the current document’s rendering.

To avoid this, you’ll need to reset your custom rendering options before changing the appearance mode. You can do this in `-[PSPDFAppearanceModeManagerDelegate appearanceManager:applyAppearanceSettingsForMode:]`. In Swift, the implementation would look like this:

```swift

func appearanceManager(_ manager: PDFAppearanceModeManager, applyAppearanceSettingsFor mode: PDFAppearanceMode) {
  // Reset custom render options only for sepia and night appearance modes.
  document.updateRenderOptions(for:.page) { options in
    var backgroundFillColor: UIColor
    switch mode {
    case.sepia,.night:
      // Set the default value.
      backgroundFillColor =.white
    default:
      backgroundFillColor =.red
    }
    options.backgroundFill = backgroundFillColor
  }
}

```
