There are two types of colors you can set on an InDesign layout which create different effects when the layout is exported as a mag+ Vertical.
- Background Color: The Background Color is the color of the B- Layer where no objects are placed. When displayed in your app, it appears as the background color behind your content.
- Knockback Color: The Knockback Color is a background color applied to the A- layer. As the user swipes to bring the A- layer content into view, the background of that layer gradually fades from 0 (completely transparent) to an opacity that you specify.
Note: Available Background and Knockback colors are drawn from the list of Swatches available in the InDesign document. To make new colors available, create a new Swatch in InDesign.How to Change the Background Color of a Vertical

Note: You will not see the background color change until you perform a Review or Export the layout into a Vertical.3. Save your document and preview it on a Review device.
