Designing <strong>with</strong> <strong>NevoStudio</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> Working <strong>with</strong> Backgrounds<br />

2. Select Browse Gallery Location.<br />

3. Navigate to the drive and folder containing the images you want to use.<br />

<strong>with</strong>in subfolders of the folder you choose here.<br />

4. Click OK.<br />

The last gallery open when you exit <strong>NevoStudio</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> will appear the next<br />

the Background Gallery, then select Restore Gallery Location.<br />

Applying Backgrounds to Pages<br />

A page can use a color or an image for the background. By default, the<br />

background for a new page is a light blue color (default_blue from the<br />

Standard Background Gallery). To apply an image from the gallery as a<br />

background, click an image thumbnail in the open Background Gallery and<br />

drag it to the page in the Design panel. The image will be re-sized to fit the<br />

page. See “Working <strong>with</strong> Background Images” on page 110 for image file<br />

specifications.<br />

When you drag a background image to the page or page collection, you<br />

haven't destroyed the color value. Instead, you have elected to display the<br />

Background Image instead of the Background Color. You could always set<br />

the Background Type to be Color again.<br />

To apply a solid color:<br />

1. Click the page in the Design panel, being careful to click in an unused<br />

area of the page.<br />

2. Open the Background Color drop-down menu in the <strong>Pro</strong>perties panel:<br />
