NAME

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-background-properties [gnome-std-options]

DESCRIPTION

       The  Background	preferences  tool  allows you to customize the 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  back-
	    ground 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.
