Need to change the PageDiv

Freeway

Can you not change the attributes of the pagediv? I need to be able to change this, it allows me to centre the page vertically with my code, but cannot change the pagediv?

Is this not possible?

Thanks

If you leave the Align property alone, you should be able to do most
anything to the PageDiv using the Styles palette.

Make a new style, in the Tag field enter #PageDiv, tab into the Name
field and delete whatever is there, then TAB BACK OUT to keep Freeway
from auto-entering something again to mess with you.

Create your style attributes using either the pickers or the Extended
dialog.

Hi Walt,

Hope you are well.

Thanks for that, so by having the page align centre, it made my external css code not work. Have took the centre off and now it works fine.

Thanks again

Right. The thing that happens when you do any sort of centering or
aligning is that all of a sudden Freeway uses inline styling – the
most powerful magick in CSS – to give the PageDiv a shape and
dimension. So it wouldn’t matter what you did dimension-wise in a
stylesheet, anything in the inline style declaration will trump that.

When you leave the Align picker on None, then the pagediv is simply

and that's all -- ripe for extending with CSS from the page HEAD or an external stylesheet or anything you like.
