Image Background

A component that allows you to set a background image to cover the entire screen. You can add child components to it to layer them on top of it.

Adding an Image Background component

  • Select the Image Background component from the Components drawer. You can open the list of components by clicking the + button next to Components.
  • In the Data tab (third tab) in the Properties Panel, set the Source Type to Static. Then, in Source, select the image from uploaded assets.

Any component that is added as a child to the Image Background component will be positioned above the image on the screen

In the example above, the Image component is using a remote url source type. There are three different options available to assign a Source Type to an image:

  • Static when the image source is an uploaded asset
  • Remote Url when the image source is an url
  • Data when the image source is coming from the REST API service you've integrated inside Draftbit.
