Background

Backgrounds are fixed elements that are embedded in your photo product. You can set the background by tapping on the Back­ground button in the design tools at the bottom. This will display various options for setting the background:

Colour Background

Choose from available colours or tap the Colour box to open a menu where you can select a colour from the GRID or SPECTRUM tabs. You can adjust the colour’s transparency by tapping the Opacity box and using the slider.
Colours can be marked as favourites by tapping the heart icon below the colour. To display only your favourite colours, tick the Show only favourites checkbox. This feature also applies to gradients and textures.

Gradient Background

Default gradient options are displayed for selection. It is possible to select a custom colour for the gradient by selecting a colour in the Colour 1 and Colour 2 boxes.

The rotation of the gradient can be adjusted by tapping on the Gradient rotation box and using the slider to select the desired degree. The opacity can be adjusted by selecting the Opacity box and moving the slider.

Texture Background

Select from various texture options. You can adjust the opacity using the corresponding box and mark textures as favourites by tapping the heart icon.

Image Background

This tab displays any images already added to your product for you to choose from. To add new images, tap on the Upload new images button at the bottom and select the new image you wish to include.
Once an image is selected, the Reframe button in the top right corner becomes available. Tapping this button opens the edit mode where you can adjust the image as needed. For more information read Image article.

You can control the transparency of the background image by adjusting the value in the Opacity box

Apply a Background

• For single-photo products, tapping the OK button at the bottom will apply the selected background to the entire photo product.

• For multipage photo products, such as Photo Books, you have two options:
  
  • To all pages: Apply the selected background to every page within the photo product.
    
  • To current page: Apply the selected background only to the page currently being edited.

Note that backgrounds are applied to both sides of a multipage photo product. To customize the background for a single page, you will need to add a Fill Box and configure it accordingly.

To remove a background from the photo product, tap the Back­ground button to open the background menu, then tap the bin icon in the top left corner.
