Backgrounds

Backgrounds tab contains a collection of tiles used to change your project background.
To access a background collection, select Backgrounds from the View menu.

Double-click a background to use it in your project.

Starting with version 5.3 you can easily change pattern size in your project. Select the needed value from "Pattern zoom:" to change pattern size.

Press "Remove background" button to remove the background from your project.

Backgrounds can now be arranged into thematic groups. If you have a collection of background tiles, you may create your own folder in Background directory and place your tiles into this folder. Background file extensions should be changed to .bkg. Then you will be able to use your own background groups.
To select your group:

On the View menu, click Backgrounds.
Press button located to the right of line.
Select the group name from the popup menu (the name will correspond to the name of the folder you created earlier), and press it.

Now you can use backgrounds from your thematic group.
