Background images in Outlook - Cio not injecting support

Hey Niven,

the current email drag&drop editor used by CIO is based on the beefree editor. You can also check out if you can find information on how they handle background images in Outlook in their community.

The code for background images in Outlook is typically VML code. VML can cause accessability errors (as explained in this Litmus article) and thus is not used a lot by many editors (including Stripo, Litmus and apparently also beefree).

If you are considering coding yourself a module, you can also check out Parcel.io. They combine HTML and drag&drop. The Parcel editor is used for in-app messages in CIO already, and you can use Parcel features when building email html code, so my guess is they will introduce the drag&drop editor to email as well.

Hope that helps,

Felix
