Setting Page Attributes

The top level in the element hierarchy is always the page itself. To inspect a
page’s attributes:

1. Select any element in the page.

2. In the Inspector, click the leftmost icon in the element path. (If necessary,

click the Inspector button in the toolbar to display the Inspector.)

The Title text field allows you to set the title of the document. If you click the
“Title is dynamic” checkbox, the title becomes a dynamic string whose value is
determined at run time. You enter its binding in the Title field. See “Dynamic
Strings” for more information.

You can set the colors to be displayed for the page’s background, text, or links
by clicking in the border of the appropriate color well (or by clicking Colors).
(See “Setting Colors” for more information on using the Colors panel.) To select
an image to use as the page’s background, click Texture.

Click here to display Page Attributes.

Click here to make the title a dynamic string.

Enter the page title (or the binding if the title is
dynamic)

Click borders to open the Colors panel and set the
color.

Click to choose a background image.

Click to open the Colors panel.

Select Partial document if the component is
designed for reuse within other components.
