func fixBackgroundSegmentControl( _ segmentControl: UISegmentedControl){
    if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
        //just to be sure it is full loaded
        DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 0.1) { 
            for i in 0...(segmentControl.numberOfSegments-1)  {
                let backgroundSegmentView = segmentControl.subviews[i]
                //it is not enogh changing the background color. It has some kind of shadow layer 
                backgroundSegmentView.isHidden = true 
            }
        }
    }
}
