SID-00482: Set Header Width to 100%

I took the TWiki_header.gif and edited it to better match the corporate design. However, I am struggling to set it to 100% site width. The result looks like this.

How do I set it to 100%? And yes: I know the logo doesn't look good, yet...

Discussion and Answer

I believe that is controlled by the #patternTopBar background-color css setting in colors.css of the PatternSkin. Overload this css and set it to the rightmost color in your gradient. Details at PatternSkinCssCookbook, PatternSkinCss, PatternSkinColorSettings.

Ah ok. I haven't even thought about changing the backgroud colour instead. When reading PatternSkin, I stumbled upon another solution, which works fine for me. So for documentation purposes:

In the WebPreferences, set the Background colour of the header with: * Set WEBHEADERBGCOLOR = #cc0033

Thanks Peter.

Glad it worked out.
