In Windows there are two ways to get to this setting. Through the Rhino Options>Advanced Settings>Shaded but from the image above it doesn't look like there is an advanced option on there. So the Alternative is to go through the Viewport Title Menu with a right click and select Display Options. Does Mac have a similar feature?

On the image you posted above, the top one "Background" is where on Windows you change the colour of the viewport background.

I had to look and the windows options are the same - I have mine set to white,

Backface settings are a Rhino display feature that allows you to easily identify a surface's normal direction.
