Global Design

The Global Design section lets you make global changes that affect your entire site. You can customize your site's text, buttons, images, background, and navigation widgets from the design panel. This allows you to quickly and efficiently make sweeping visual changes, reducing design time and keeping your site's style consistent across pages.

Note

Changes that you make to specific widgets or pages will override global styles set in the design panel. We recommend you first decide on a global style, and then make customizations to parts of your site that you want to stand out or look different than the rest.

Design Panel Overview

To open the design panel, in the side panel, click Design.

When the design panel is open, the canvas is automatically minimized to 50% view so that the entire canvas is visible while adjusting the global design settings. If you want to return to 100% canvas view, click the drop down in the top bar and select 100%. The ability to zoom in or out is also available in preview mode.

Global Text

This section lets you control global text for your site, both for text and titles of all sizes (H1 to H6). Changing the font size, style, color, and other edits that will affect the text for all future paragraph and title widgets. To learn more, see Global Text.

Global Colors

Global colors allow you to define a color palette and link the individual colors to any or all widget with color settings. The color of any element that is linked to the global colors will automatically be updated when the linked color is changed in the global colors settings. This allows you to quickly make color changes, which helps reduce design time and ensures your site's style is consistent across pages. To learn how to configure global colors, see Global Colors.

Button Style

This section lets you control the style of the button widgets on your site. Select one of our button designs and set the background color, border style, and text. Choose other effects like adding rounded corners or shadows to the button.

Note

Enable the toggle to Hide the Back to Top button on mobile.

Image Style

This section lets you control the style of the image widgets on your site. Select an image using the image picker and add or edit the border style, rounded corners, or shadow effects.

Row Style

This section allows you to define the global row design in terms of background color, default row spacing and default column spacing.

Note

Edits that will be made on individual rows will override the global row settings.

Site Background

This section lets you control Background Style for your site. Choose between using a color or image as your background. Changes also affect the desktop and tablet.

Site Layout

Control the site layout navigation on desktop, tablet and mobile. For the desktop version, you can choose from two widths: 960px or 1200px.

Note

Changing your navigation's layout often affects the behavior of your header and sometimes the rest of your site. If your header suddenly looks incorrect after changing the layout, try a different layout.
