My left side bar is currently transparent and I cannot work out how to fill it with a solid background colour.

Grateful for advice.

Hello Duncan,

Select step 2 template / template structure, select the viewport you wish to change. Click on the menu in picture or select it from the second pulldown.

Then change colour.

Best Regards,

Thanks Andre.

If I make it a colour, it overlaps the left hand side of the template.

If I make it transparent, the background show through.

Grateful for any further ideas.

Attached is the white background

You probably have also an image file in the template, do you want that to be removed (the flowers?)

Then check if you have an image file, if so do use right mouse button to try and find it and make a copy before you remove it. Or make a dupplicate project or extra backup just for you to be on the save side.

But these older templates are difficult to maintain in v16, do you have this template from an older version?

It is easyer to use a newer style template.

Hope this helps anyway.

Best Regards.
