Center The page

How can you center freeway so no matter what screen size a user have the page will center and have a background that will fill the rest of the screen?

1) Make the page the same width as it’s contents. 2) Select ‘Center’ from the ‘Align’ menu in the inspector when the page is selected.

Doing this will center everything on the page.

If you have an image then you need to select the image in the ‘Image’ menu of the same page and then select the tile options relative to the image you have used and how you want it displayed.

e.g. if you want the central area white and the sides grey you should create a 4 px high image that has the width you want in white then you could have say 20 px at each side in grey, select that as your page image and select center ‘Horizontal’ then tile ‘Vertical’ from the menus that appear when you select an image. You could then select the same colour of grey as the page background colour that you used on the 20 px right and left side of the background image strip. When your page loads the center will be white with grey at each of the sides, like a white column on grey. As you have the items to center on the page they will sit over the white area, as you expand the width the grey will expand and the white column and the page items will line up centrally.

Your miniture of you 4 px background image might look something like: ____ ____

BTW, this post is something that would probably be more at home in the Freeway talk list, the dynamo list is more for issues beyond this… such as coding issues or questions.
