Operation Manual

Colour, Fills, and Transparency 101
You can apply preset gradient and bitmap fills from the Swatches tab to
the fill or outline of a shape or text frame. Table cells as well as artistic,
frame, and table text can also take a gradient or bitmap fill. The fill's
path on an object's fill or line can also be varied for different effects (see
PagePlus Help).
Applying a gradient or bitmap fill
There are several ways to apply a gradient or bitmap fill: using the
Swatches tab, the Fill Tool, or the Fill dialog.
PagePlus can also produce automatic gradient fills based on applied
solid colours—giving you an almost unlimited number of choices.
To apply an automatic gradient:
1. Select an object with a solid colour applied to its fill, outline, and/or
text.
2. From the Colour toolbar's Fill, Line or Text buttons, select an
Automatic gradient that blends from the current colour to white or
black.
