I have just started using the pro version and have a question that might have been asked before, if so, I apologise. The default page size is 960 x 720 pixels. Do I need to change this? or will this size be ok? I am trying to create a textured background by tiling a downloaded tile. When I cover the page from side to side and then preview it, it doesn’t cover my Macbook Pro screen. I am really confused by this. The rest of Freeway I can just about cope with.

Thanks

Brian

They’re just a coupe of presets. Feel free to change them to whatever you want/need them to be.

Make sure you apply the pattern as window-background, not page background. It’ll cover the entire window then, in stead of just the page.

Thank you for your prompt reply. That seems to be my problem, but how do I set it to a window background?

Thanks again

Brian

Open the Inspector palette, go to the page-appearance-setting tab (the crayon), and there you’ll see two options for both window and page. For the pattern, apply yours to ‘window’.

Thanks for that. It’s easy when you know how isn’t it.

I know, I don’t even work that way to be honest, I normally do such things via CSS (create a style called ‘body’ and go from there)
