How to Add a Background Image in a Column? — FAQ
What does "add a background image to a column" mean in QuoteCloud?
Adding a background image to a column lets you customize the visual design of a single column inside a document. The image sits behind the column content so you can enhance layout, reinforce branding, or create visual contrast without changing other columns.
Can I add a background to both a row and a column at the same time?
Yes. You can apply a background to a row and also to individual columns within that row. This allows you to create layered visual effects while keeping content organized and visually appealing.
Can I use QuoteCloud’s built-in images and my own uploaded files?
Yes. You can choose images from the built-in library via the Unsplash picker or upload your own image files to use as a column background.
How do overlays and opacity settings affect a column background?
Overlay effects and opacity adjustments let you control the visibility and readability of a column background. Lowering the opacity reduces the image contrast so text remains clear, while adding an overlay (such as a semi-transparent color layer) helps unify colors and improve contrast between the background image and foreground content. You can adjust the overlay directly on the column background in the editor.
Does the background image apply to only the column I select?
Yes. This feature targets an individual column, so you can apply different background images and settings to separate columns without affecting the entire document or other columns.
