Form design

Amateur

I have a form with a background image. The background image should fill the
whole form.
Why do I have, on the top and on the bottom of the form a +/- 5mm space,
where I can see my normal background color and not the image?
Thanks

Maybe because you have a form header and a form footer in your form. If you
do and you don't use them you can remove them from the form.

No Maurice, no header no footer - My background is just not filling the whole
page.
Any other idea which could help?
Thanks

Klaus,

I've tried placing a background image as well. I had to set quit some
properties to get the whole form filled. First of all the picture should be
big enough. Then I had to remove the scrollbars, recordnavigation en
recordselectors to get it completely filled. That's what I came up with don't
know if that is any help to you...

have you set picture size mode property to stretch or zoom (not Clip)? if so
it should fill the whole form.

change picture alignment to top left if you have margin at top then you must
have a header or footer

Hi Phil,

I tried it with an original image without zooming or strectching becaus my
assuptiom is that Klaus is using it that way to. I understand your comment
and by zooming or stretching I do get the complete image.. So good comment.

HI Maurice

sorry I posted it twice, I am posting from work so first post did not show
up we are using some archaic system here that does not seem refresh very well.

if you want to keep picture same size then you need to resize form as I see
you have done
