How do i disable bullets and lists in pages?

pages is beautiful, but i have never been able to use it as my primary word processor for one simple reason.  I make staggered outlines constantly, and it ALWAYS tries to auto format them.  I've decided to try to make Pages my only word processor, but i must find a way to disable bullets and lists in order to be able to do that.  to be clear, i need to be able to type things like the following without any auto bullet-ing or listing by pages.  i want to do i my own way, without help--
I.  Something
     A.  related
     B.  also related
II. Something else
     A.  blah
          1. speaking of blah 
     B.  
I would greatly appreciate any help anyone could give me to help me stay in control of my own outlines while using pages.
I use OS x 10.9.3 and Pages v. 5.2 (1860)
thank you in advance.

  • How do you link styles with bullets and lists?

    It seems that amongst all the other hapless changes in Pages 5 there is no way to link bullets & lists to a style. I hope I'm missing something.
    If I create a style with a numbered list it, then click on the next paragraph I'd like to have that style, the style name changes along with font characteristics and alignment, but no bullets or numbers.  Moreover, pages crashes often when I try to update bullets and lists.
    I have a fantasy that somewhere in Pittsburgh where I beieve the Pages development team lives there's a building full of coders passionately fixing all these things. If just the people on this thread put in $20, the former cost of Pages, we could probably hire a team to do the work for them.

    1. Yes it is possible (and relatively easy)
    2. You should learn about applets, image handling, servlets and jdbc
    Good luck

  • How do you determine StringBuffer and List capacity?

    hi all,
    I'm curious and would like to post this query that how to determine the StringBuffer and List capacity after read some of the Java Platform performance book. Some of this performance books simply tells number of capacity brieftly without telling what and how does the capacity stand for.
    First, the book mentioned StringBuffer(50). Note, my question is that what is this 50 stand for? 50 Characters? or any. Can someone help me to rectify this?
    Second, List. ArrayList(0.75). And what is this 0.75(by default) stand for? A heap space? Then how many of them? How many objects that can be stored for not to "exceed 0.75"?
    Please help. :)
    regards,
    Elvis

    I think the capacity is the CURRENT size of a container. But it is not equal to the number of elements that container currently hold. Just like, a house can have 10 people within, but problably only 3 people at some time. Also, the capacity is not equal to the maximum size, because container can grows automatically.
    For example, a container whose capacity is 50, currently has 30 elements in it. If you add 10 elements more. That is only an addition operation. But if you add 30 elements to it. Then the container first enlarge its capacity according to some arithmetic(a enlarging rate), secondly carry out the addition operation.
    Now that the capacity is the size, it should be a number standing for HOW MANY elements.... In the case of StringBuffer, it should be how many chars; in the case of ArrayList, it should be how many Objects. I do not think 0.75 can stand for a capacity. Prabaly, it was used to describe the enlarging rate when containers need to contain more elements than its current capacity. ( From JDK API, you can see the type of capacity is int ).
    For containers and alike, the questions "how many I can hold" and "how many I am holding", "Do I can enlarge"? are helpful for understanding how it works.

    Just adding on to Nameeta's post, there is a supress download checkbox in the advanced setting s link(Settings -> Advanced Settings) on the client, this will supress downloads for all syncbos and not just for any one syncbo. Also there are no tools in the middleware to add these settings, the only way to do this is to modify the xml manually.

  • How do I disable my and-virus to download adobe reader

    how do I disable my and-virus to download adobe reader

    Locate the uninstaller for your anti-virus software and remove it from your computer. This will turn it off as well. Never reinstall it because you really don't need it. See:
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using ClamXav.

  • My wifi keeps coming on when i don't want it to. How do i disable it and keep it off?

    My wifi keeps coming on when i don't want it to. How do i disable it and keep it off?

    kcquestions,
    That's a very good question! It's important to be on the network you want to be on. How are you turning the wi-fi off? If you go into your settings there should be a wi-fi switch as the second option from the top. If we turn it off there it shouldn't come back on until you tell it to. If you select that and press the menu button (3 dots in the top right corner) you can also turn off "Allow wi-fi scanning" which can help not get notified of them when wi-fi is off.

  • How to organize Christmas card address list in pages.

    How to organize Christmas card address list in pages? How to print address labels from this list?

    Your best bet is to put your Christmas Card list into an external spreadsheet, and then save that as a comma separated values (CSV) document.
    Create a new group in the Contacts application, and name it (e.g. Christmas List). Select that group so that it is current.
    From File > Import, select the CSV document that you saved earlier. The import process will bring that data into the current (Christmas List) contact group as addresses.
    In File > Print,  for the Style category, select Mailing Labels. In the layout tab, Set the Page to Avery Standard, and the Avery label number (e.g. 5161) sheet that you want to print too. The label tab allows you to modify the label style, and order your labels in postal or alphabetical order.
    In the Contacts Help Menu, type: print contact in the search window. Pick the first returned Help item, Print Contact Item Information, may help further.

  • How do I disable Lion and go back to snow leopard

    I up graded to Lion. Now my wireless router can't connect because it doesn't support Lion. I don't want to have to buy a new router.
    Can I disable lion and go back to snow leopard?
    P.S. I am new at computers so be easy on the terminology please.

    It would help if you gave some information on WHY the router isn't working. Start with the basics:
    -What brand and model is the router? If you can get a version number, that is also sometimes helpful. This info is generally printed somewhere on the router, usually a label on the back or bottom.
    -What do you mean by "doesn't support" - did you get this info from the manufacturer, or is this based on you not being able to connect? Routers use standard wireless protocols (called 802.11a/b, g, or n). The network cards in Mac computers also use these same protocols.I can't think of a reason why it shouldn't work.
    -Does your router have a wired connection? If so, can you connect with an Ethernet cable? You may need to be able to connect to the router directly to change settings.
    -How old is your router? And have you ever tried to upgrade the firmware settings on it?
    -Can you connect to ANY wireless routers anywhere else with your Lion computer?
    -Do you have any OTHER computers (Windows or Mac) that can successfully connect to your wireless router?
