Set default background color for tabs

You can now set a default background color for all tabs in a book. When you set a default background color, the same background color is used for any new tab that you add to the book. All existing tabs also use the default background color provided that they do not have their own color settings.

To set a default background color for tabs:

  1. Click Properties.
  2. For the entire book, ensure that nothing else has focus by clicking the background, away from any visualization or object.
  3. Click Color and theme, and under Background color select a default color.
    Tip: You can also click Select custom color to open the color picker instead of choosing from the default color options.

You can override the default background color for an individual tab by selecting a new color for the tab.
