Section – Color Style

Pages consist of fully editable sections seamlessly connected from top to bottom. With a variety of sections at your disposal, customization becomes effortless to tailor pages to your preferences.

Each section allows for the specification of unique colors for both the section itself and its underlying elements. Additionally, the option to designate background colors and background images further enhances the visual appeal and personalization of individual sections.

  • Hover the cursor over the section that you want to work on.

  • Click on the Color Style icon to open the Color Style box.


Section Colors

Under the Colors (1) tab, you will find the following options:
