    Default How is this Page Background built?

    Hi Folks,

    I've found a template that interests me, mostly because of the black and gray "Page Background". The template is "trader_website.web"

    It puzzles me because the only affect I seem to have on this is to right-click on the basic ... find the "Page background" selection and then reset it, or change the colours. Reset? Poof. it all goes away.

    I can not select the gray box, nor the black box, or both of them ... (To change positions, change the content to a textured approach, or even use two different images parchement).

    Can someone help me create such a background as this, that will allow me to add texture?. This would be the basic page I want to display throughout the site I have in mind.

    I have attached a jpeg of the box with all text, and upper layers removed.

    Hi Paul

    Open the Page & Layer Gallery and click the red padlock icon on the Page Layer. This unlocks the page contents and you can edit them. But be sure to lock the layer again.

    Here's an even better method. On the left of the screen palette are a series of colors that are "theme" colors.

    You can edit any of these colors in the Color Gallery (Ctrl + e) and the colors will change globally throughout the document.
