I am trying to create a background design element that covers multiple sections.

How do I do that?

Current situation: When I place an image within a section, it only stays inside this section.

What I`m trying to achieve is a background image that is not limited by a section (design from Figma).

Currently image settings:

Easiest way would be to simply use one section and have “sub” sections inside, you’d apply the image to the one section. These kind of things are a little tricky, if you really wanna “fit this” over many sections, I suggest using “rem” units, or some other relative units.
