Manipulating Your Table's Format
Specifying a Background Image for a Table
If you want a background image to appear in all table cells, use the Background Image field of the Insert Table dialog box.
Your Webmaster determines which images are available to you.
- Click the down arrow to the right of (Select Image). A list of background images appears.
- Click the image of your choice.
- Click OK.
Note that when you apply a background image to a table
- it applies to the entire table, including the borders.
- if the table is larger than the image, the image repeats until it fills the table.
- if the image is larger than the table, the top left corner of the image aligns with the top left corner of the table. The rest of the image fills as much of the table as possible.
- you can also apply an image to individual cells (see Specifying a Background Image for a Cell).
- make sure that the image does not obscure user's ability to read the table text.
Deleting a Background Image
- Move the cursor to any cell on the table and right click the mouse.
- Click Table Properties from the menu.
- Select the value in the Background Image field and press <Backspace>.
- Click OK.
