summer backgrounds

[rhodges]

I recently downloaded the resource pack with summer backgrounds, but when I drag one of these backgrounds to a flipchart page, the background seems to tile or repeat. Right now my screen looks like 1 whole background, with part of another copy of the same background right next to it. A colleague of mine is having the same problem. We're both using V3.6 Any suggestions? Thanks!

Many of the background images come out "tiled." You can change it to "best fit" by double clicking the background, clicking on the properties button (which looks like a paper with a red check), going to the appearance section and changing the drop down setting. Once you have made the adjustment I would replace the old one in the resource library so it comes out the right way next time.

In case you aren't sure how to do that - right click the background, select add to library - background (resource library must be open to background). If you give it the same file name it will ask about replacing the old one.

Yes, sorry about that. Sometimes, I forget to check "best fit" when I create a background so it tiles on some computers. The advice above is correct!

Thanks to both of you! Problem fixed! :) I'll forward the procedure on to my colleague.
