Page Background

First, make sure CSS is selected in the Properties manager (bottom left of screen).

Select Page Properties to open up the Page Properties Dialog box.

Under the first category, Appearance (CSS), you can change the Background Color for the page by selecting a color or uploading an image. If using an image, hit the browse button instead and navigate to the appropriate image you would like to use. (The picture  needs to be saved somewhere on your computer.)

Hit Apply to see what it will look like. If you don't like it, hit Cancel or try another color.

If you like it, hit OK.

You have successfully changed your background color.

Hit File and Save
