Remarks

You can set an image as a DocumentManager‘s background via the BaseView.BackgroundImage property. Use the BackgroundImageLayoutMode property to specify the position and stretching behavior of this background image.

The BackgroundImageLayoutMode property is ignored if the BaseView.BackgroundImageStretchMargins property is customized. See this topic to learn more.
