Background image

[John Robin Dove]

Hi Clifton.
I have been trying to make a system to allow users to change the color scheme in my program including the the image used by the page background. I have tried using pgStyleObject to change the css 'background' property or 'background-image'. Your instructions say that 'current', 'page' or 'background' may be used to refer to the background but none of these seem to work. I also have tried naming the background and using pgTBObjSet with 'backdrop' but that doesn't work either. It's not a great problem because I have found a solution which is putting a field on the background and using pgStyleObject to change its 'background' property but I'd like to know what I was doing wrong.

You are correct to use pgStyleObject() to set an image for the page.
Here is an example:

    pgStyleObject( "page", "background, backgroundSize", "url(../media/myBackground.png) no-repeat, 100% 100%" );

Of course, your alternate method is another option.
