Foreground and Background differences in override graphics

[tai.diepQTBB7]

Hi guys,

This might be a stupid question, but what is the difference between the background and foreground option in override graphics? If it is possible, please explain for me what foreground and background mean in Revit.

Thank you all,

Background sets the color of the background of the overriden elements. 
Foreground sets the foreground of the overriden elements

I hope this anwsers your question, if not can you explain with some screenshots  what you are searching for. 

If you are a beginner have a look at this page: 
there is a lot usefull information on Revit basics.
