Before drawing any text, you need to have an available font, just like any other program that prints text. Fonts are encapsulated in the sf::Font class, which provides three main features: loading a font, getting glyphs (i.e. Visual characters) from it, and reading its attributes. To use the textbackground function all you need to do is before printing any text call this function with a parameter defining the color in capital letters.
