I must be going crazy! After downloading 3.1 I was playing around to see the new features and I found that I can adjust the background gradient by setting the length in px as well as the percentage of the change. Couple of days later I can't find it anywhere? Please can someone help with this?
Many thanks!

I'm definitely going crazy! Can't see the option anymore to change the font (colour, size etc.) for the headline and also the 'sidebar' option is gone from the main menu!! Is it something to do with the upgrade somehow?
Thanks!

Ok, I've done a reinstall of 3.0 and everything is there, working fine so it's not me afterall, phew!
That's quite disappointing though, I was very much looking forward to the colour-schemes out of an image feature but I won't be upgrading until at least these basic feautres work.
I might leave a message somewhere else, in case somehow by miracle I'm the first to come across with this.

Hi Bob,
thanks for your reply!
I thought I would get a notification that there's a new message and I didn't that's why I'm only back now, sorry!
Well that's the thing that now that I'm back in 3.0 I can change the font colour size etc but in the new version these are greyed out (ie. not clickable).
I did find the 'blocks' menu but you will see (again in the new version) that you can only change settings for the blocks but not the sidebar itself (in other words, if you wanted a different colour for the entire sidebar, I don't see how you can do that).
The background gradient was admittedly a bit confusing, I found it in the new version when I first installed it but a few days later I couldn't find it again and I was wondering if someone else know where it's located.
Thanks for your help!

do you maybe use Home Edition?

Hi Bob,
I think you're right with the Home Edition. But that's very disappointing then because if it was available in 3.0 than it seems silly to be taken out from the next version.
Thanks for your help though! :)

Hi,

The custom dialogs options were never available in the Home edition, so that's the reason they are greyed out now. But I'm not sure how you have used them before. Maybe it was trial version.
