Can't figure out how to build out the full-width category product example that is available in the pro themes. Here's a short screen video of what I'm struggling with:

Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks, - Paul

From everything I've done with SCDP and SCCP it's my under standing that the themes are the real heart of the software. You can create your own themes that are just altered existing ones. The SCDP is used to design your shops look and feel while SCCP decides how it will interact with the user. For your category detail properties click the advance tab over to the right hand side panel. It looks like from your video that you need to grab the window pane and drag it left to expose the properties box.

Edit
Ok I know what your after now. In SCCP click on you shop at the top. In shop setting click pages. Go down to the categories section and check the box's to make it look the way you like.

It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Did you add an image to the main category?:) Click "product list" tab. Now click the orange main category bar in SCCP, which in your case I think is Dog Walk Happy Biscuits. This will open a window to add an image to this area.
Hope this helps.

You figured it out for me, Eric. Thanks. I hadn't noticed the tool tip on the right side of the category bar. That did the trick. http://screencast.com/t/sxkKX4dRWJt Thank you again. - Paul
