POST Background Option Explorer


Run the stamp to see the key attributes for background options. Now look at the background options for the parent of this note, the category note [Sample Category].

You will see that two have been set:

  • $blogBkgTexture is BodyTexture_TB128.png
  • $blogBkgOpt is BKG-TEXTURE;CARD;BKG-COLOR

The default $blogBkgOpt for cat-notes is BKG-TEXTURE;CARD. As a result, cat-notes normally show the default texture and the teasers are floating cards. But I have added BKG-COLOR to [Sample Category]. As a result, [Sample Category] also shows a background color. Normally, this would be the background color set in the Styles Dash. But I have overridden this by setting the note’s $blogBkgColor to a powder blue (#adf).

Experiment
Q: What will happen if you remove the value of $blogBkgColor of [Sample Category]?

I have set the $blogBkgOpt of this note to BKG-TEXTURE;CARD. I have also added an override—$blogBkgColor has been set to a light yellow-green (#efc). As a result, the background of this page will be a lemon-lime diamond plate.

Q: What will happen if you add BKG-BEQUEATH to this note’s parent?

Play around by adding and subtracting triggers.
