If you know how to use styles, you can open the Styles and Formatting window using
F11. Right-clicking the Heading 2 paragraph style allows you to modify the appearance
of all three headings. See Chapter 6 of the Writer Guide for details.
Step 9: Change the background of a form
The background for a form can be a color, or a graphic (picture). You can use any of the colors in
the Color Table at Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Colors. If you know how to create custom
colors, you can use them. You can also use a picture (graphic file) as the background.
To add a color to the form background:
1) Right-click the form to open a context menu.
2) Select Page.
3) Make sure the Area tab has been selected. (It has a white background while the other tabs
have a gray one..)
