Summary

Learn how to add background colour to content boxes in your blast emails using table properties, allowing you to create clearer sections and visually stronger layouts.

Adding background colour to a Content Box helps you highlight key information or create visually separated sections within your Blast email. This is done using the table tool inside the Content Box editor.

To add background colour:

  • Open your Blast email
  • Select an existing Content Box, or click Add New Content Box
  • Inside the editor toolbar, click the Table button
  • Insert one cell (a 1×1 table)

  • Drag the corners of the cell to expand it to your desired size
  • Click Table Properties from the toolbar

  • In the Table Properties window, click the Advanced tab

  • Select a colour in the Background Colour selector

  • Click OK to apply the colour

The colour applied will display behind any text or images added to the cell.
