Changing WebDesktop Background

To have better control on the desktop's background image, you can try to set the BackgroundImage property of the FrameStyle. Then, set the desired css styles in the provided CustomRules property to customize the position and repeat behavior of the background image.

Let me know if that works for you.

Hello,
For now, we have a property for changing the background (DesktopManager.ImagesSettings.OverlayBackground). But if you would like to do it via client side, you can also rewrite the element at frame level. I have attached a simple sample to show you how. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your reply.

I see the when specifying an Image URL to this property, the image is stretched to the maximum dimensions of the desktop.

How can we set the maximum dimensions for the background image and specify the absolute position on the desktop?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Alex,

Yes, that can be done easily by using a simple property set.

Set your image url to the provided DesktopManager.ImagesSettings.OverlayBackground property.

Hope this helps,
James.

Good day,

Seeking instructions on easily changing the background / wallpaper image URL and position. I'm assuming this is a very straightforward property within the WebDesktopManager.

Thank you in advance
