Quasar - background of header section

Posted 14 years 6 months ago
- I have changed the colour for the background of the header section - files header-bg.png and header-div.png and also the codes in the rt-top and body for my style6.css.
  
  But I find there is an extra area of grey just behind my logo and also there seems to be a one pixel difference on the left and right side of the template (between the logo and and the area where Faulty Towers is shown).
  
  I enclose the picture here for a better view of what I am trying to say.
  
  How do I correct these problems?

- Sorry but it does not work. It is still the same as before.
  
  Any other areas I should change?

1) Change this::

.backgroundlevel-high #rt-header4, .backgroundlevel-med #rt-header4 {style6.css (line 25)
background:url("../images/backgrounds/style6/header-underlay.png") no-repeat scroll 50% 0 transparent;
}

.backgroundlevel-high #rt-header4, .backgroundlevel-med #rt-header4 {style6.css (line 25)
background:none;
}

2) Locate this in index.php file of template ::

<?php /** Begin Header **/ if ($gantry->countModules('header')) : ?>
          <div id="rt-header">
               <div class="rt-container">
                    <div id="rt-header2">

and change it to::

     <?php /** Begin Header **/ if ($gantry->countModules('header')) : ?>
          <div id="rt-header">
          <div id="rt-header2">
               <div class="rt-container">

- What I mentioned is some of the CSS that can change the areas you mentioned. Like if you commented out the lines mentioned you would see those areas change. Commenting them out may or may not be the answer, but a starting point.

- The problem is in the style6.css in the Header Section, not the template.css (I think that's right but I'm sure a moderator will give me a well deserved slap if I'm wrong.)
  
  Find:
  .backgroundlevel-high #rt-header4, .backgroundlevel-med #rt-header4 {background: url(../images/backgrounds/style6/header-underlay.png) 50% 0 no-repeat;}
  
  Replace with:
  .backgroundlevel-high #rt-header4, .backgroundlevel-med #rt-header4 {background: transparent;}
  
  OR
  
  leave the original style6.css alone, then find the file header-underlay.png listed above and open it in your graphics editor program. Next, CLEAR the file and save as (a blank,transparent) header-underlay.png. This way, no code required.
  
  (I a "no touchie the code" kinda' gal unless absolutely required!)
  
  I often resize some of the overlays to 20x20 and save them as "Same-name-as-file.png" in case I want to change them later. The resulting file will take up a whopping 1kb or less. It's easier than changing the code, gives you the same result and you can go back later and change it without a hassle or having to remember which code you changed.
  
  Of course, you should make a back-up of any file prior to taking the word of someone who could possibly be wrong (like ME!)

- Hi Amandeep, your solution works perfectly. But now, I have a small little problem with the top where there is an additional pixel shown in the center part - like previously for the bottom of the header where your second solution resolved it. What should I change to resolve that top issue?
  
  And thanks, Empowermom. Your solution works for my first problem.
