To use a transparent GIF image for spacing
1 Create a small (1x1 pixel) transparent GIF image in your image editing software and drag it into the Files tab of
your site window.
2 Drag the transparent GIF image from the site window to the desired location in the text. (See “Specifying the desti-
nation URL for a link” on page 169.)
3 In the document window, drag the image’s selection handles or use the Image Inspector to resize the image. You
can also use the Image Inspector to align the transparent image horizontally and vertically within the text. If you have
trouble selecting the image on the page, click the <img> tag in the markup tree bar at the bottom of the document
window.
You can save the resized transparent GIF image for reuse on other pages by dragging it into the Snippets tab of the
Library palette. (See “Snippets” on page 429.)
