DESCRIPTION

desktop background. The desktop background is the part of
the desktop where there are no interface graphical items,
such as panels and windows. The desktop background is always
beneath the other interface items.
You can customize the desktop background in the following
ways:
o Select an image to display on the desktop background.
The image is superimposed on the desktop background
color. The desktop background color is visible if you
select a transparent image or if the image does not
cover the entire desktop background.
o Select a color for the desktop background. You can
select a solid color, or create a gradient effect with
two colors. A gradient effect is a visual effect where
one color blends gradually into another color.
