    Default Background image

    Hi There,

    I am using web designer MX and my content is centred on a page.
    Where I have a white background for the rest of the page I would like to have an image. Can that be done?

    I ask this because my client wants to have 2 coloured lines down the righthand side of the page. (Company Colours)

    I have attached the image.

    Thanks for your help.

    Best Regards,

    Steve.

    The simplest way to do this is to add two colored lines (or tall, think rectangles) to the right side of the page.

    Right click on the lines and select Position on Page > Stretch with Page. If you make your page longer the lines will automatically stretch to the depth of the page.

    Hi There,

    Thanks for your reply.

    Yes, I can see how you do that but I need the line on the right of the web page. Please see screenshot attached (widepage.jpg).

    Is there a way for me to set this.

    Best Regards,

    Steve.

    Covoxer's RightSideTab tweak might be your solution.

    Hi Drwyd,

    Thanks for the reply.

    That looks promising.

    Can I use that when using a templated web theme?

    All the best,

    Steve.

    You will need a good understanding of JavaScript and Xara's export filter

    Covoxer's full tweakset can be found here

    Hi Drwyd,
    Thanks for the reply.

    I have downloaded Covoxer's Tweakset.

    I cannot see RightSideTab in there.

    Best Regards,

    Steve.

    You're right, I can't find the original source so I'll attach them here.

    Just copy them into your tweaks folder and go to your designs gallery, hit disc designs and update.
