Default colored background to text

hello!



I want to apply a colored background in a specific text, which color will expand from the top to the end of that text, and from the right margin to the left margin of the document

how can I do that?

thanks!

Select the text, go to Borders and Shading, select shading, select your color, and apply to Paragraph in the relevant drop-down field.

Best,
