| Summary | 0002458: Ability to define page colour or image as page background | ||||
| Description | One of the features I like in OO.o is the possibility to define a default colour or an image as background for a page. If scribus had such a feature, a lot of work could be saved. Currently, one has to define a template for this task. I think to have this available in document settings would be a good idea. I specifically think about company publications with predefined colours or exhibition catalogues, where the drawing/photograph of the person the exhibition is about, is placed as a background picture on each page. | ||||
| Additional Information | For basic information, have a look at OO. Writer, either in "Format - Page - Background" or in the Stylist under Page templates. OO.o's possibilities are somewhat limited, but could serve as an example. What would be needed is something like: Page background: [Drop down menu: None, Colour, Picture] If colour: -> Colour Palette as in the properties menu If picture: Image Browser plus Image effects dialog (many images will need to be blurred, made transparent or inverted for use as a page background) Apply to: [Drop down menu: Whole page (would, of course, require bleed to be implemented), Printspace, User defined (options must be better than in OO.o; probably scribus' "frame" settings would be better)] Options: [All, Odd, Even, Facing, Facing (inverted), more(?)] Maybe this can be implemented as some kind of fixed layer that can only be edited through the document settings. | ||||
