Can I create a "floating" toolbar, or customize any of the floating palettes?

I don't want the toolbar visible because I need it for almost* nothing and I can't accept even a little compromise to the visible length of my writing workspace. So I hide toolbars, formatting bars, rulers, etc., and use key commands instead whereever possible.
But without the toolbar visible, I can't create tables easily--there's not even a key command. The inspector can only edit tables already created.

The Insert Menu oddly enough inserts stuff, all sorts of stuff.
When I start using a new program I have a good look around, which is well rewarded in Pages because it has mostly sensible names, well organised from the large down to the smallest details working left to right in the Menus and Inspectors.
The View menu also does what it says and the keyboard shortcuts are (mostly) next to the menu items.
If a menu item like Table does not have a keyboard shortcut you can give it one in:
Menu > Apple > System Preferences… > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts

  • How can I create my own toolbar like SmartBar??

    I would like to know how can I create my own toolbar that works like the default smart bar.
    I need to work with a smart bar, but i have to create it, and it has to work like the default one.
    the smart bar should be able to navigate along my different forms/canvases.
    Can someone help me??
    With regards

    Tiagor,
    you can't change the smart bar. All you can do is to create a hrizontal toolbar canvas.

    Can I creat an new iCloud account and make it the primary one for my backups and buy extra iCloud storage for it?  Thank you

    Hey Hindfromlondon,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.  Since you are posting here, I take it you already have an Apple ID.  
    You can setup that Apple ID to work with iCloud.  See:
    Set up your Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes - Apple Support
    And you usually want to stick with one Apple ID as having multiples can cause confusion (especially with purchases).
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
    What is an Apple ID?
    An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. You don't have to create a new account for each service—just use your Apple ID.
    For a complete list of all of the places you can use an Apple ID, see Where do I use an Apple ID.
    and further down:
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs. 
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
    Regarding iCloud storage check out
    iCloud storage upgrades and downgrades - Apple Support
    I encourage you to read all about it as there's lots of information out there.
    Take care,

  • IPhone 5 has stopped receiving my e-mails. Can't access anything under Accounts to use any of the resolutions in the support pages.

    iPhone 5 has stopped receiving my e-mails. Can't access anything under Accounts to use any of the resolutions in the support pages.

    Did you set up restrictions for changing account info in Settings/General/Restrictions? If yes, disable them and try again to edit your mail account info.

  • How can I create a fIlter to delete only "junk" from the server?

    One of my E-mail accounts is that of a major client. I handle their customer service online. Normally our protocol is to always leave all messages on the server, so for that one Thunderbird account, I have it set to never delete messages on the server.
    But the account recently started getting a lot of junk messages. Thunderbird is doing a remarkable job at marking those and placing them in the junk folder for that account. I would like to create a filter that could remove them from the server, preferably those more than "x" days old so I could monitor the activity to be sure that no important message are removed.
    I did notice that in "Filters" I can create a custom filter from a header of my choice, but can't seem to create what I want which is:
    - after mail is marked as Junk by Thunderbird to delete those messages from the server if they are older than "X" days (my choice of "X").
    - not delete any other messages from the server for that account

    I believe that did it! Thank you. I am running those changes on a secondary E-Mail address for the same job and server and it appears to be working properly.

  • How can I create a card with only a picture on the front - inside blank

    How can I create a card that only has a picture on the front and the inside is blank?

    Use the Holiday Colors theme for a folded card.  For the outside select the layout that just includes a full page photo. For the inside select the layout that suits your eye..
    As far as the text boxes are concerned just put a single space in them and then order.

  • Can I create a XSL function and use it in the Word Template

    I have a complicated logic (complicated if i have to repeat it 400 to 500 times) for determining if I should show a null expression. If the value is null or equal to 0 show N/A else show the value.
    If I have to repeat this over and over again and it turns out to need an update this would be a nightmare. But I don't have time to waste on a wild goose chase either. If I have to do something a couple thousand times i better get started basically.
    Can I create a function in the word template then call it throughout the word template for each field I have to check?
    Have a link to a tutorial that is doing this?

    If you really want to have a function, you have choice of using subtemplates (either RTF or XSL)
    You can check for steps here
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-publisher/overview/bip-subtemplate-1-132933.pdf
    But if you have functions or use the code directly you anyway need to modify your 400-500 fields.
    i.e. either
    <?xdoxslt:ifelse(COLUMN='','NA',COLUMN)?>
    or <?call:template_name?>

  • Can't create new BeehiveOnline Workspace "You do not have the required..."

    I'm trying to create a new BeehiveOnline Workspace. I follow the instructions from the FAQ, but as soon as I click on the "New/Workspace" option, I receive this error "You do not have the required privileges to create a workspace in this Location"
    The location looks like "/Oracle" but when I click on the associated "+" icon, nothing else displays.
    I am trying to create this new workspace around Mid-Day on Sunday in Australia, so is it possible the system is "down", or is this a genuine privileges error? and if so how do I fix it?

    This error is caused by you not having workspace creation rights - BeehiveOnline has restrictions on who can create workspaces. Go to beehiveonline.oracle.com and click on the right button. Find out who the group administrator is of your group and ask them to grant you workspace creation rights.

  • Can I create an HCM Form without involving any workflow steps?

    Hi Experts,
    Can I create an HCM Form without the involvement of any Workflow steps ? I tried to create a simple form to save the User id( IT0105) of a person. I tried to simulate the process through program RPASR_TEST_PROCESS_EXECUTION. But, finally it failed saying "No workflow assingned. Process not successfully completed" . How should I proceed if I dont want any workflow steps to be included?
    I just want the form to update the infotypes directly when I save.
    Pls advice,
    Thanks in advance!
    Mahesh

    Yes. This is undocumented for some reason (I learned it from SAP folks! haha). Set the workflow to:
    NO_WORKFLOW
    You're welcome. haha

  • Can I create a File object without writing it to the disk?

    I need construct a mechanism where I can "write" instructions to a file and then FTP this file to a remote system. It is basically a Telnet-like integration for a system that does not support Telnet. Once the file is on the remote device, it knows how to read the file and process its instructions.
    I would like to logically create this File object, by that I mean that I would like to use a FileWriter object to write the text instructions to the File, then use the Jakarta Commons NET API to FTP the file to the remote system. My question: can I create this File object without the file actually being written to the file system? Can the File just be memory resident for this creation and FTP?
    There could be tens of thousands of these transactions per day and I would like to just avoid any kind of deletion strategy, if I can. Thanks.

    Apart from the questionable decision to try and mess with the File object, I think the answer to (my guess at) your original question is "Yes".
    Jakarta Commons/Net FTP can upload to a server from any input stream you like. It doesn't have to be a FileInputStream. In particular it could be a ByteArrayInputStream, which reads from a byte array in memory.

  • Can you create an app using Adobe DPS, then pass the Folio to a programmer to add interactivity?

    I'd like to know if I can create an app using Adobe DPS, then pass the folio to a programmer to add advanced interactivity that DPS doesn't provide. I would like the programmer to use either XCode or Android SDK because it is a standard, but they can also use C#, JavaScript, and several other coding languages. The folio would serve the purpose of a tight digital comp for the programmer.

    Thanks for your help Bob! I found this article on the Adobe site. Figured I'd share it. http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/help/import-html-articles.html

  • How can i search for a color that is not in the color palette? (CS 5.5)

    I have a client, that has used a certain color in a series of textfields throughout the document.
    The color consists of all 4 CMYK colors and needs to be just Keycolor. However the color is not in the swatches menu, so marking it there and changing it won't work. I have downloaded a script that might have worked, but it could only find colors that were in the swatches palette. (Find / Change by Color / Overprint" version 1.2).
    Ofcourse, creating a similar color and adding it to the swatches doesn't work.
    Is there anyway that i can search for the color or does it really have to be done manually.
    Best regards

    You can only search for real, actually existing swatches. No sweat: use "Add Unnamed Colors" in the Swatch panel dropdown menu to get a list of all of the manually applied colors.
    Since you want to change all of them to the same color, you don't even have to use Search/Replace. Simply delete the new colors and select the one you need in the "Replace With" dialog that appears.
