Click the Select... button to choose a graphics file for display on the background layer. Most common graphics formats can be used as backgrounds as well as Canvastic documents.

The background layer sits behind the object and paint layers. Although it may be hidden and shown, its contents may not be changed by any of the paint or object tools.

Canvastic ships with a folder of background images named backgrounds to get you started. Feel free to add your own. See the Layers section for more information about the Background layer.
