I am not asking this, I mentioned to you that I just make the background image for the screen, not for canvas, I don't need background image for canvas, as I am making a doodle app, that canvas works as a drawing area. I just give the image to the screen but I don't know how the code automatically appearing as
set canvas backgroundimage to colormap.png
I don't want that colormap.png to be the background of the canvas

But set canvas backgroundimage to colormap.png does exactly that; it sets the Canvas image to colormap.png.

Perhaps you intend to set Canvas1.BackgroundImage to Screen1.BackgroundImage ?
