I use this command

Grid[{
  {1, 2},
  {Graphics[{Blue, Disk[], Text[Style["1", Large, Red]]}],
   Graphics[{Blue, Disk[], Text[Style["2", Large, Red]]}]}
  }, Background -> LightGray]

enter image description here

But I don't want grid's background setting to affect the number in graphics, like the graphics blow. What should I do?

  • $\begingroup$ this issue seems to be version/os related. It does not arise in version 12.0 (Wolfram Cloud). Which version/os are you using? $\endgroup$

Specifying Background -> None at the right place in the Graphics body works in version 10.1:

Grid[{{1, 2}, 
  Graphics[{Blue, Disk[], Background -> None, 
      Text[Style[#, Large, Red]]}] & /@ {"1", "2"}}, Background -> LightGray]

  • $\begingroup$ I put "Background -> None" in the end of Graphics and in Text won't work. Can I ask why put "Background -> None" in the middle solve my problem in the most easy way? Thank you very much. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @pmzhu In the manner I used it Background -> None needs to come before the Text expressions, just like Blue needs to come before Disk[]. You could also use the more specific {Background -> None, Text[. . .]} should this conflict with some other part of the graphics. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ That is a very clear explanation, now I understand why. Thank you. $\endgroup$

Maybe this will be a solution:

diskTable[colDisk_: Blue, colText_: Red, colBack_: LightGray, 
   sizeDisk_Integer: 250, textSize_Integer: 24, numDisk_Integer: 2] :=
   Block[{i = 1}, 
   Row[Table[
     Column[{Style[i, textSize - 10, colText], 
       Graphics[{colDisk, Disk[], 
         Text[Style[i++, textSize, colText]]}, 
        ImageSize -> sizeDisk]}, Alignment -> Center], numDisk], 
    Frame -> True, FrameStyle -> colBack, Background -> colBack]];

diskTable[]
