Hi, there are some properties you can use , to set the canvas text style 
You can set text custom font using this property:
You can change the paint color , the text will be changed also :
For changing text font size:
You can check all of the canvas properties here :

yes, i want to make the text inside the canvas have style not black text as default.
ex : background gray, with 15px font size and font color to yellow or something like that
If by style you mean changing the font face, size, angle and color, then yes you can do that.
Any more than that, not directly. You will have to build your custom procedure or extension to do anything else.
Like this procedure I made once for drawing the outline of the text in canvas: http://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu/?galleryId=6673426826395648

yes i have try this, Font color and font size its success to moderating
but how about the background?
i try change it but nothing happen
The background color property’d change the background color of the canvas , and not the text.And as you add an image as your canvas background , you can’t set a background color for it.
ohh i forgot about this one, any solution for this?
i try using a labeltext to call global custom_text, then i set text value to global
then i call the label inside the canvas as text, if i add background color on the label, does it make an effect?
You only can set the text color using the paint color property, but probably a procedure can do this.
ok thanks for helping me, atleast can change the font size with color first. background text color just for bonus
anyway, can i store the canvas as image on firebase or mysql?

To change the background color and see the change, you have to clear the canvas. If you don’t do that the color will keep being the previous one.
