Set background color for scrbook \maketitle page

Question

I am using the scrbook document class, and I just want to set the background color for the standard title page created through \maketitle.

I already tried using the pagecolor package [1], but it shows no effect for the scrbook class. (Works with memoir, though.)

Any help is appreciated!

Answer 1

I don't see any problem without needing a special package for it:

\documentclass{scrbook}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\AddToHook{env/titlepage/begin}{\pagecolor{green}}
\AddToHook{env/titlepage/after}{\nopagecolor}
\begin{document}
\title{Title}
\author{Author}
\maketitle
\chapter{Test}
\end{document}

Or for those, who use an old LaTeX without generic hooks:

\documentclass{scrbook}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\begin{document}
\pagecolor{green}
\title{Title}
\author{Author}
\maketitle
\nopagecolor
\chapter{Test}
\end{document}

Both examples have the same result:
