Background is 512 x 512 pixels, but my entire canvas is same color!

Hi everyone.

I have to make a 512 x 512pixels background in black but when I drop it into photoshop, my entire canvas is black so I can't really see the boundaries of my document.
I see online most people have a grey canvas and can easily see the boundaries of their document since the document is usually white, transparent, or black.

How can I get mine to grey like others seem to have please? I assume this is preferences but how do I find that?

thanks,

Thanks, it was so easy that I was too dumb to figure it out. I can't believe all I had to do was click on the background of canvas and just pick a color. Thank you.

That's not "dumb" - that's curiosity. A most valuable quality when using Photoshop.
