Overriding the Default Page Background Style

The page background derives from the Background tab of the PSPAGE style class contained in the current page style sheet, whether default or override. You can override the default page background style.

Note these points about changing the default value of the page background style:

• Changing the page background style value for a specific page overrides the background properties of only the current page.

• If the current page style sheet comprises only free form sub style sheets, the system constrains the page background style to the default style class.

• The Page Background Style drop-down list box displays only the style classes that comprise the current page style sheet, whether default or override. Style classes that do not appear in the current page style sheet do not appear in the list.

To override the default page background style:

1. Open the page in PeopleSoft Application Designer.

2. Select File, and then Definition Properties to access the Page Properties dialog box.

3. Select the Use tab.

4. Click the Page Background Style drop-down list box and select a style.

5. Click the OK button and save the page.

6. Select Layout, and then View in Browser to preview the page.

   Unlike the page designer view, this option renders the page with all style classes, including free form styles.
