Edit a Section

Sections let you structure your content clearly and effectively.

Once you've added the section you want, edit it however you want.

Add your own unique flair, including background changes, size adjustments, and additional elements.

Background attachment

The background-attachment property in CSS sets whether a background image's position is fixed within the viewport, or scrolls with its containing block.

  • Fixed: The background image stays fixed no matter what.

  • Scroll: The background image scrolls with the main view, but stays fixed inside the local view.

  • Local: The background images scroll with the element's content.

Background size

The background-size CSS property sets the size of the element's background image. The image can be left to its natural size, stretched, or constrained to fit the available space.

  • Auto: Default value. The background image is displayed in its original size.

  • Contain: Resize the background image to make sure the image is fully visible.

  • Cover: Resize the background image to cover the entire container, even if it has to stretch the image or cut a little bit off one of the edges.

Spaces not covered by a background image are filled with the background-color property, and the background color will be visible behind background images that have transparency.

Background repeat

The background-repeat CSS property sets how background images are repeated. A background image can be repeated along the horizontal and vertical axes, or not repeated at all.

This setting works with Auto and Contain background size.

  • Repeat: tile the image in both directions

  • Repeat x: tile the image horizontally

  • Repeat y: tile the image vertically

By default, the background image is set as no repeat.

Background position

This setting allows you to move your background image around within its container.

There are 9 options to place your background image:

  • Top left/ top center/ top right

  • Middle left/ middle center/ middle right

  • Bottom left/ bottom center/ bottom right.

You can quickly change the color used as your section background by clicking on the section > quick actions bar.
