# Global background

In these settings, a global **background image (1)** can be uploaded and configured for the entire online-shop.

Determine about the **Repeat (2)** whether the image should repeat like a pattern. You can determine whether it should repeat vertically, horizontally or in both axes.

**Attachment (3)** lets you choose between an `fixed` or `scroll` image. If the image is `fixed`, it remains visibly fixed in the window even when scrolling. If the image is `scrolling`, it disappears when scrolling and moves upwards with the document flow.

With **position (4)** and **size (5)** you determine how the image should fit and position in the background of the store.
