Quick Design

Page: Design >> Quick Design
You can use the Quick Design function to change entire design of your current Web site style with just a few mouse clicks.
Caution: Any changes that you make here are effective immediately and can be seen on the Web site. Changes to the colour blend cannot be undone. If necessary, create a backup copy first.
As in the design function, the page is split in two, with the multifunction bar above and the page preview below. For more information, see Design basics, above.
The following special function groups appear in the multifunction bar for the Quick Design function.
Preview
The content area displays various text, tables, product lists or product details, etc., according to the current function. You can select and display these types of content using the Preview drop-down menu. This means that you can check very easily whether all content is readable using the colour selection.
Using the Editing help you can hide all the design elements from the page preview.
Images
This option allows you to upload logos and images for the Header area of your Web site. See also Uploading images, above and File management, above.
For more on editing the logo, see Status, above. For more on the header and other areas of the Web site, see Design basics, above.
Settings
You can set a basic colour for the entire design using the Colour option. Your selected template is displayed using the specified basic colour, with the areas using matching colours. This colour is displayed in the box. If you select a colour, this is used as the new basic colour for the design and the matching colours are recalculated. The areas of the site are then displayed using the newly calculated colours. If the design template consists of several basic colours, there is a selection option for each colour. For more on selecting colours, see Colour selector, above.
You can define the font for the entire Web site using the Font option.
The Icon set option allows you to select a matching set of icons for the Web site. For more information, see Icon set, above.
Template
You can select a template for your Web site here. All other design settings will be overwritten.
Use the function Insert page element to place additional page elements in any area of the page. See also Page elements and navigation, above.
Caution: All settings made in Quick Design overwrite any other settings that have been configured previously in the Design area.
If you are happy with the basic settings, but wish to customise individual areas further, you should read the chapter Design basics, above and following.
