Colour of the background in Map views.
This colour is in fact used for the background of a number of other view—see more.
The attribute's default is not set but it inherits the default of map background colour gray from the Preferences Maps pane.
A number of utility views also use $MapBackgroundColor (the document-level value, not the current note's) to draw the background of their list panes.
In Map views it is also used as the primary colour for background patterns.
$MapBackgroundColor can be set via a map view tab's Map Settings pop-over, 'Color' colour controls.
