Text on colorful background
Dear Sirs
I need to put a text on the score but I want to put the text on a colored background, how to do it in Musescore
I've done this in the past, but I forgot, please guide me
I am very grateful

After adding the text, go to the Inspector and add a "frame" to it by selecting the shape you want. You can then set the border of the frame to be invisible, the background color to be whatever you want - but be sure to set the opacity or "alpha" channel so it isn't transparent. Details vary by OS.

Dear Sabatella
I didn't quite understand your suggestion, so
I’m sending a model of what I did in the past and I don’t remember how to do it
I am very grateful

In that score you had added a line, edited by Inspector

Dear Sir Shoichi
I didn't find this "Stacking order (z)" function in my Musescore
How to have this feature
I would like a further clarification
Sincerely

It is in the Inspector.

Yes, you did it with a line, but that's a not good way, there is no guarantee ut will stay aligned with the text as the layout changes.
I'll try to be more specific in my answer:
1) click the text
2) go the Inspector
3) where it says "Frame", set it to "Rectangle"
4) where you see "Thickness" under "Border", set it to 0
5) where it says Highlight, click the apparently empty space (it's transparent) to bring up the color picker
6) choose the color you want
7) be sure to set the "opacity" aka "alpha channel" as you like (0 is fully transparent so it won't be visible; 255 is full opaque
Looks like you had chosen a light yellow with opacity 80.

Dear Sir Sabatella
With your clarifications I managed to do what I am sending attachment
Not exactly what I wanted
I wonder if I didn't use the guidelines correctly

You set the border color, not the highlight color :-). And you also didn't set the thickness to 0; you actually increased it.
