This article shows you how to change the appearance of the content page in a rich post or WeChat article by using the Page Properties tool.
Content page means the vertical column in the centre of the WeChat editor workspace. When editing the content page, you are changing the size and appearance of the structure that holds components, and not the content.
There are two tools in the Page Properties panel:
- change background
- adjust padding
Other tools
There are 3 other tools you need to learn and use when creating rich posts or WeChat articles.
