Defining Report Background Colors and Patterns

*  To define background colors or patterns:

  1. Select Report, then Report Properties, and then HTML.

    When you define a background color or pattern from the report properties, it applies to your current report only. To define a background color or pattern for each report you create, access the HTML tab by choosing File/Edit, and then Preferences.

  2. Define a background color or pattern and click OK.

    • To define a background color, click the list box next to Page Background Color and select a color from the color palette that appears.

      To create a custom color, click Custom Colors at the bottom of the color palette and define a color.

    • To define a background pattern, select Background Pattern and enter a GIF or JPEG image in the field to the right.

      To search for a particular image, click the button to the right of the Background Pattern field.

      Note:

      See Displaying Icons on the Navigation Bar for information on how to customize the background pattern or color on the navigation bar for HTML reports.

      Note:

      Custom colors may not display properly in a 256-color mode. If your custom colors do not display properly, try using a higher display setting. Custom colors may also display differently in different browsers.
