Background image obscures the auto page numbering

I have an 80 page book that I want to have automatic page numbering. All pages have a background image that bleeds off the page. The background image changes on every page.
The document is currently set up with individual image boxes on each page rather than on the master page. The problem i have is with the image obscuring the page numbering on each page. Trying to correct this I went back into the master pages to lay down a master image box bleeding off the page and the automatic page numbering on the layer above it. Testing this on a test document everything works fine. But as soon as i attempt to go into a regular page and change that master image the numbers disappear.
What is the proper way to change an image from the applied master page so that it doesn't obscure the page numbers?

Great suggestion for using layers, I'm accustomed to using them all the time in Illustrator and forgot about that option in this case. It worked perfectly to place the page numbers on the master page on a second layer positioned on top and applying master page to all document pages. It brought the numbers up to the top level.
Thanks so much for the solution.

How to set tray's background image in the custom page layout?

Hi all,
I've developed custom page layout with custom iView tray implementation. I've applied my layout into my page and added some iViews. Those iViews are URL isolated so they are rendered as an iframe. My problem is that an iframe background containing iView content overcast my background image which I have set in my iView tray implementation. Is it possible to set transparent background for an iframe in this scenario?
I would be grateful for helpful answers.
Best Regards,
Michał M.

Hi Tamil,
That's right, I've already used layout tag library do develop custom tray design but my problem concerns iView's isolation method . URL isolation renders iView's content in an iframe which has its own background. I've read some articles about getting transparent iframes but I'm not sure how could I achive this in SAP EP? Is it possible?
Best Regards,

Can we resize and change the background image in a 2 page layout?

I am a two page layout report in RTF. Can I use different background image on page 1 and page 2? The first page background will not be repeated but the second page will. Also, it seems when we insert a background image by going "Format -> Background -> Fill effect -> Picture", after we finished the whole process we can't get the background image to fit with the page, can we resize it to be fit with the page? Thanks for your help!

Yes. Select the image and go to the Inspector/Hyperlink/Link pane and use the Link to One of my Pages option.
Remember: the photo must be added to the page by dragging it onto the page and then be selected. It can't be added as a background image with the Inspector/Page/Layout pane.

How do I 'assign a higher layer to the object on the master' (page numbers on master) I understand the layer needs to be at the top to show above placed images on pages but how do I do this?

I've added the page numbers to my master pages. They are displaying on the pages but I have images on the individual pages that are covering the numbers. I understand I need to assign a higher layer to the object but I don't understand how to do that. Please help me? Please explain a simply clearly as possible, I've read other answers but still don't understand. Wish it was as simple as select object, right click, edit layer!
Many thanks!

Layers panel;
Create new layer
Switch to Master page
Make sure new layer is on top in the Layers panel, if not drag the layer on top in the Layers panel.
Select (click once on) that top layer (pen symbol appears behind that layer in the Layer panel)
Now draw your page numbers etc on the Mastet page
From now on, select (click once on) any Layer in the Layers panel that is below the layer you used on your Master page items and create new objects in your document pages.
If you accidently created objects on a 'wrong' layer:
Select those objects
You will see a square behind the layers name in the Layers panel
Click and hold the mouse on that square and drag it behind the name of the layer you want to move the objects to.

Why is there a scroll bar though I set the background image to "scale to page size"?"

Why is there a scroll bar though I set the background image to "scale to page size"?"

The current build of iTunes may occasionally draw the scroll bar off the edge of the screen. It should be possible to resize the window to reveal the scroll bar.
You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
Ctrl-B to turn on the menu bar.
Ctrl-S to turn on the sidebar.
Ctrl-/ to turn on the status bar.
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the previous search behaviour.
You can also open the menu bar temporarily by pressing Alt.

How do you make an image a background image if the menu option is dimmed?

I'm using the Cork Board template in a Pages layout document. I wanted to use the cork background in another page. Option dragging the cork image creates a copy in the new page. I can "Send it to back" but the Arrange->Send Object to Background command is dimmed. The problem is that "Send it to back" does not put it behind the header or footer so my page numbers are not visible.
Oddly, if I just drag the cork image from one page to another, it remains a background object in the new page. Copying it causes it to come out of the background.
Anybody have an idea why the Send Object to Background command is dimmed?

In fact, my guess is that the cork.pdf object is a background object because it is a template transferred from Pages '06 to Pages '08.
During the conversion, some properties are passed even if they aren't treated by the new version.
If some one wish to let some of these items in the true background, as far as I know, the only available soluce is:
create a new object from the delivered template
unlock some items if necessary
remove useless items
lock back the kept item
save the document as a template.
Never change the background property of the kept items.
As far as an item is a "true background" one,
trying to move an other item to the background will leave it above the "true background object".

How to setup jpeg file as background image for all site pages and resolution stay same?

I have uploaded my new site to http://wwwtjhtestdec2012.businesscatalyst.com
I have background image set the same on all site pages but image is incorrectly zoomed way in on some pages (like Home page for example).
The Donate Page shows the correct resolution which I want displayed on all site pages.
How do I set all other site pages to match background image resolution of the Donate Page?
I am not sure what I am doing wrong that is changing this, or if it's possibly a bug?
I want the background image to be full screen on all site pages please advise how to resolve.
I would appreciate the assistance!
Thank you kindly!
Tammy

I have re-uploaded my site to http://wwwtjhtestdec2012.businesscatalyst.com.
If I set the Master page to Tile vertically that is only way I can get full screen background image of vegetables (without distortion).
Then however another issue occurs....
On Home Page of site I set same property to Tile and the background is better (no visible line where tiles meet---above the navigation tool bar--that is what I want for all pages associated to Master.
So logically, I tried setting a 2nd associated site page to same master, to Tile but on Statement of Faith Page, notice the horizontal line where tiles meet, above my navigation bar on that site page?
Why does Muse not handle both site pages associated to the same master identically?
Any of the other options besides Tile or Tile vertically cause the background to not fill entire screen.
Ideas?

How to change background image for each individual page in a template?

I've been working for hours to try to figure out how to change the background image for each individual page in a template. I have tried making a div in the body and adding a CSS and setting a background picture. Unfortunately even after I made it editable all templated webpages changed. I tried looking at different forum results which didn't really help me out. http://forums.adobe.com/message/2670005#2670005#2670005. I've also tried embeding a CSS style on the webpage instead of the external CSS which again didn't work. I'm not sure where to go from here. Is there a good video that explains this clearly. Please help. Thanks.

Adjust inline styles to suit your needs.

Master pages do no display auto page numbering

This is strange. I set up auto page numbering on the master pages and the document pages display the page numbers correctly. But later on I thought the page numbers were too large so I went to the master pages to change the size and there's nothing. Thinking the page numbers were hidden from view or somehow were white in color (i.e, they were there but weren't being displayed) I chose Select All but still nothing.

You're a genius. Happy Thanksgiving.

How is it possible to adjust the background images and the text in Mail?

How is it possible to adjust the background images and the text in Mail?

Here's the solution I used to solve the same problem. If you're not comfortable editing the source files, this might be more than you want to take on--but I've done it to several files with no ill effects. You can follow the instructions on this page and the referenced original post from (he includes a link on the page). Good luck! He's got some great tips on some of his other pages.
http://photo.rwboyer.com/2010/03/15/aperture-3-book-theme-trick/
A warning about editing the Master pages--it only edits them in that book--it doesn't update the theme. So if you go to create another book with those same layouts, you'll have to duplicate the book and replace all the images. An alternative would be to create a "clean" book with no photos in it and then just use that as a starting point each time.

Background image of custom master page just shows for 1 second.

Hi,
I have created a custom master page from a html code and I have applied to it on my site collection, but when I open it on the web browser the background image just show up for a second or less and then the background turns white.
I'll aprecciate any suggestions in order to solve this.
Regards.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that Background image of custom master page just shows for 1 second.
I recommend to change the class to use .main-content.
.main-content
background-color:#F4F2E5;
background: url('/Style%20Library/Images/image.png');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-;
You can also use a contol called cssregistration. Add a line that looks something like this, right below the existing csslink:
< SharePoint:CssLink runat="server" Version="4" /> (under this you add:)
< SharePoint:CssRegistration runat="server" name="/Style%20Library/Scripts/style.css" After="coreV4.css" />

Could not apply background image to the panel group layout in spaces application

I tried to apply background image to the panel group layout with css class and also with inline style such as below
background-image:url('/content/conn/intra-dot-content/path/mywebcenter/lever/backgroundmain.jpg');background-position:center; background-repeat:repeat-y;
The background image does not show up. but it work with panel border layout. Is there any work around for the issue

You can try styleclass, which is always better choice than inlinestyle
page:
<af:panelGroupLayout id="pgl30"
                                   styleClass="testPGbackground">
                <af:outputText value="outputText5" id="ot8"/>
              </af:panelGroupLayout>
css:
.testPGbackground {
    background-image:url('/images/unselectedTabStart.png');
It works for me.
I tried with inline style also and it worked.
bac
<af:panelGroupLayout id="pgl30"
                                   inlineStyle="background-image: url(/incview/images/unselectedTabStart.png);">
                <af:outputText value="outputText5" id="ot8"/>
              </af:panelGroupLayout>
NOTE: You need to mention image url with context-name here, which could be a way of hard coding context name and in future it could be very difficult to change contextname. As recommended styleclass is better solution.
Thanks

Start Auto-Page Numbers a Few Pages In

Just like the title says.
I'm writing a long paper, and in the footer I wanna put in auto-page numbers on the third page. If I select the third page and then turn the setting on, it just starts on the first page! How do I start the numbering on the third page?
Thanks a ton!

Put in a section break at the end of the 2nd page:

Then go to 3rd page:

On Ibooks Author, my programmed image for the Chapter page no longer shows up on new pages, just appears as a question mark inside a box, How do I fix this?

On Ibooks Author, my programmed image for the Chapter page no longer shows up on new pages, just appears as a question mark inside a box, How do I fix this? Please help, its the same when I try and copy and paste the same image within Ibooks author.

You may have moved or removed content on your page or its possible you used the"Adjust Image" and over sharpeed one or more images.
I assume you mean it does not show up of new Chapter pages... have you checked the template?
Where you see the ? you need to either reduce teh box outline size - or drop anther copy of the original image onto it, it may fill the ? box or sit on top.... delete the ? box.
If its Chapter page only related, its better doing this in the template.
Is you image .jpg or .png?
