Can't change text box in resume template

Hi,
I filled out my resume in a Pages template but now want to expand the text box (I believe that'd be the term) but it won't let me. Maybe it's not a text box after all. Any ideas?

By expand do you mean add text to it or make it physically bigger?
I take the later.
The size is set by the margins:
+Inspector > Document (1st tab) > Document margins+
+Inspector > Layout (2nd tab) > Layout > Layout margins+

  • How to change the size of the text box in resume template?

    Hi, I started a document using the "Traditional Resume" template. I'd like to enlarge the main text box but for the life of me, I can't figure out how. I suspect it's something to do with changing the documents template but I can't figure it out.
    Can anybody help?
    Thanks.

    Hi:
    I am using the "Milano Resume" template. I've taken your suggestion to widen the margins, and I've added the vertical ruler on the side, but is it possible to "stretch" the main "box" of the template vertically?
    I ask b/c I want to enlarge the font size to 10 pt., but in doing so I'm running out of room at the bottom and my text is being pushed onto a second page.
    Thanks,

  • Trying to understand the default TEXT boxes in the templates?

    Sometimes the default text boxes in a template cannot be deleted. It's as if they act as spacers ... for example a 'title' text box that if dragged down makes the page longer. A 'normal' text box doesn't do this, and it can be deleted.
    I'm customizing a template. I customized a particular 'blog' main page. Then I wanted to make another similar 'blog' main page (this site will need three different blogs). I created another page using the exact same template ... and notice an extra text box (spacer?) that can't be deleted, and that seems to have disappeared from my original customized page - even though I CAN'T delete it from the new customized page. Very confusing.
    What are those template text boxes that seem to be controlling space holders, and how should I use them properly?
    All ears,
    Ben

    HI Peter,
    well In Quark Express as as wrote earlier, that you can see other text frames highlighted immediately, after you select any of the text frame among the threaded text frames, say there are 5 text frames which are threaded together, even if I click on 2 nd or say 4th text frame, it shows me all the text frames highlighted which are threaded together, so If I am working in a catalog which has multiple pages, it's easy for me to see which text frames are threaded together, as if you make any text changes, say add or delete text in a text frame, the other text frames get affected by that. I mean text shifts accordingly, it's easy to track in Quark which text frames will get affected if I change something in a threaded frame.
    Anyways, it seems this option is not available in In Design. That's fine. I am not in preview or Overprint previed mode.
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can i change backgroud color of global template in fusion cloud?

    Hi all.
    someone of you could help me?
    How can i change backgroud color of global template in fusion cloud?

    Hi.
    Making CSS changes like this is currently only possible off-line, using the JDeveloper-like Skin Editor. This is described in our blog post here, a demo on our YouTube channel in this video, or the product documentation here. Coming soon is an online 'theme editor' feature which allows this kind of customization online. I would recommend that you raise a request with the Cloud Operations team to verify if they support the addition of custom skin files, otherwise you are limited to the online branding options currently available.
    Kind regards

  • How to convert the Adobe 10 PDF to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 so that I can make the text boxes expandable?

    When I convert the Adobe 10 PDF to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 it is a static document, thus not allowing me to make the text boxes expandable.  How do I take a current Adobe 10 PDF with Text and convert it to Adobe LiveCycle ES2 so that I can make the text boxes expandable?

    Hi Alan,
    TextField objects can expand dynamically.  There are a few things that you need to do:
    1. The TextField object should be contained in a subform that is set to Content: Flowed.  This isn't technically necessary, but if you have anything below the expanding text box and the subform is set to Positioned, the text will expand and overlay what's below.
    2. On the Field tab of the text field's Object property tab, check the Allow Multiple Lines checkbox
    3. On the Layout tab, check the Expand To Fit checkbox under Y:/Height
    4. Set the PDF Render Format under Form Properties/Defaults to Dynamic XML Form.  If you're previewing in Designer, don't forget to set the preview to Dynamic too.

  • How can I embed text box on photos?

    How can I embed text box on photos?

      Did this software slow down the system in your experience?
    No, not afaik. It behaves like any other external editor. You do not need to have it running in the background all the time. Just activate it from the contextual menu after ctrl-clicking the image you want to annotate and select "Edit with plug-in -> BorderFX" from the pop-up menu (or Photos ->  Edit with plug-in -> BorderFX) .
    Corky02 really said it all - the only draw back is that this plug-in really is more like an export plug-in and the edited version will create a new master.

  • Can't change text once I've finalized it!

    I've been using Photoshop for years, so I know all the basics.  And I've never run into this before.  I created a document with text boxes and images.  Everything was fine to that point.  But when I went back to re-word the text boxes and change text color, I could not do it.  I tried everything:  be sure that layer is selected, be sure I have the type tool enabled, and click somewhere in the existing text.
    Nothing doing.  No matter what I did, it insisted on starting a new text layer.  I could not access the text itself to change it.
    I could transform it or move it but it will not let me change the text itself or the text color.
    I'm using the PS cloud version and running Windows 7.
    I ran into this a few weeks ago, and rebooting my computer solved the problem -- or so I thought.  Apparently it didn't solve it permanently.
    Help, please!  This was due yesterday and my client is understandably not amused.
    Thanks.

    Now I can change text in any text box except the one titled "spinetext", which is highlighted in the layers panel.  Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I've designed a lot of these covers, and never had trouble changing the spine text before.
    I finally had to recreate that layer in a new document and import it into this one -- but the text remains unchangeable in this layer.
    (For what it's worth, "Layer 1" is the template, which I turn off when I have inserted all the elements, so it has nothing to do with this layer.)
    Thanks for your help!

  • Can you change the background colors in templates on Pages?

    I love the newsletter templates in Pages, but I can't figure out a way to change the background color. I am supposed to use specific colors so I was hoping there was a way to change the background colors in some of the tables. Is there a way?

    Hi, yes, I clicked the box that I wanted to change the background in. I made sure that the correct box was selected and not the text box on top of it. Then I clicked Fill on the top bar and selected the color that I wanted to change it to. I only wanted to change the color in certain boxes - I didn't want to change the entire background of the newsletter template. I hope I explained this ok

  • How can I control text color in a template?

    Hi,
    I've got a template I'm using to control a simple text
    navigation menu. The menu is not even a list, it is just the
    following text with links applied:
    Page 1 | Page 2 | Page 3 | Page 4 ....etc
    All the pages on my site use this template to control the
    order in which pages appear in the navigation menu. The color
    (a.link, visited, hover, and active) is controlled by css styles.
    What I want to do is make the "Page 1" text a certain color when
    the user is on Page 1, make the "Page 2" text a certain color when
    the user is on Page 2, and so on. However, since I cannot edit any
    of the individual pages (e.g. cannot apply a class style to
    individual "Page x" text links) due to the fact that they are
    controlled by a template and are not editable regions, I can't seem
    to apply a certain color to the appropriate text link for the
    corresponding page (i.e. can't make the "Page 1" text a certain
    color only on Page 1). If I make the navigation text links an
    editable region than I loose the ability to update those text links
    via the template, so that's not an option. I fooled around with the
    "Make Attribute Editable" tool, putting div tags around my text
    links (<div class="text_color">Page 1</div>...I also
    tried it with span instead of div), but couldn't get that to work.
    Does anyone know how I can do this? Basically, I just want the user
    to have a visual clue as to what page he's on while still being
    able to use a template to create the pages (and residing navigation
    menu).
    Thanks so much.

    NO NO NO NO NO!
    Never make your navigation editable or you will shoot
    yourself in the foot
    when it comes time to change a link there and you would have
    to touch every
    page. <sheesh>
    Give each of those links a unique ID, e.g.,
    <a href="page1.html" id="link1">Page 1</a> |
    <a href="page2.html"
    id="link2">Page 2</a>....
    Then in the head of each child page, add this to the Editable
    Region called
    "head" -
    <style type="text/css">
    a#link2 { color:whatever; otherstuff:whatever; }
    </style>
    Now you would just edit the embedded stylesheet to change
    a#link2 to a#link3
    or whichever button you wanted to affect on that page.
    Alternatively, you can go here -
    http://www.divahtml.com and get
    their
    DivaGPS extension.
    DO NOT MAKE YOUR NAVIGATION EDITABLE.

  • Why is the text in the resume template invisible?

  • Column Headers - Can't Change Text Orientation

    In Excel I am able to change the column header row text orientation so that I can have long text headers for both my rows and columns. With pages, my text can only be horizontal, which make a spread sheet with long column names very wide, even though the data in each cel is perhaps one or two digits.
    The only solution I have found is placing a text box over the top of the column header cel for each column, but doing this makes it impossible to use the text from the column header in a calculation or in an export or merge of any kind.
    If there is something I am missing, please let me know. Otherwise, please consider this a feature request. It seems like a very obvious oversight on the features in Numbers.

    This feature is not available in Numbers. If you'd like to request this feature to Apple then from Numbers' Main Menu select "Provide Numbers Feedback."

  • Can you change the language shown in templates, all templates in pages are in Spanish not English?

    Every time that I use pages it offers me templates but when I go to use them they are always displayed in Spanish and not in English.
    Does anyone know how I can change this please?

    It's pseudo-latin filler text and can't changed.  You need to create you own english content to replace the filler.
