Getting text to wrap

When I enter a new event - sometimes the text "wraps," dropping down to a second and third line if need, and I can see all the info. Other times, it doesn't wrap, and I see only the info that fits on the first line. Looked at preferences and the different menus. Don't know how to set/reset this. Don't know why one type of event wraps and others don't. Please help!

Only words that can be hyphenated wrap correctly in iCal.
So London works, but not Toulouse. Buying works, but not Peking.
Strange that this bug has not been reported before?

Getting text to wrap in a form field

How do I get text to wrap in a form field instead of shrinking in size as I type?

You need to enable the "Multi-line" option for the text field and make the field large enough to display the maximum expected entered text.

How do I get text to wrap around a jpeg photo. Pages instructions don't eem to work for me,

How do I get text to wrap around a jpeg photo. Pages instructions don't seem to work for me. I'm just beginning to use Pages for other than simple word processing.

I am creating a photo album with captions and have tried to have one caption wrap around a photo image that is part of a series of three overlapping and descending images. I have selected the photo, clicked Inspector etc. with no luck. I did read a previous answer re floating and noticed that both my text and my image have inline in light colour and floating in dark, which I presume means they are both inline. When I try to click on Floating in Object Placement, nothing happens. The option doesn't appear to be "available", unlike the wrap options below, which do light up and indicate what I want to happen. It just doesn't happen and I don't know how to solve the problem.
I have had to replace my older computer on which I did all of these projects (newsletters, albums, etc.) with an old version of InDesign, which no longer works with the newer OS 10.6. So I'm trying to learn how to do the same types of things with Pages, and it's somewhat frustrating, since text wrap was quite simple with InDesign.

Trying to get text to wrap ALL the way around either text, images, shapes in Mac Pages. I tried in Pages Word Processing

I have tried everything to get text to "wrap completely around" other text, images, shapes. Mac Pages - tried Word Processing and tried Page Layout. Inspector, wrap, Floating and Object causes wrap. The text will ONLY wrap at the TOP and BOTTOM of the object, etc. No matter which choice I make in Object causes wrapping. It just doesn't work. I have worked for hours on this - I can't find a solution. HELP!

What version of Pages?
I suspect you are using Pages 5 in OSX 10.9 not OSX 10.8.4.

Pages for ipad2 - how do you get text to wrap around the contours of a picture? Not the simple square wrap, but I saw text following the contours of a bike wheel at the Apple store demo

Pages for ipad2 - how do you get text to wrap around the contours of a picture? Not the simple square wrap, but I saw text following the contours of a picture of a bike wheel at the Apple store demo

Sjazbec,
Thanks for the reply.
I did read the help and went through the tutorial - the butterfly text wrap (and the wrap around the curved contour of the bicycle wheel at the Apple store) is the reason I am asking this question. I don't know how to use one of my own pictures and tell Pages what contour to wrap around. Is there some additional image editing software that I need to "creatively crop" one of my own pictures, so that Pages will be able to wrap around that contour?
Thanks / Danke!!

Floated sidebar - cant' get text to wrap

I did a float:right to a sidebar column on this page. Instead
of the main body text wrapping around the sidebar it jumps down
below. Probably something very simple, but I'm tired of looking at
it. Any suggestions?

Hello,
Try getting rid of all the white space between Arboretum and
the closing </h2> tag, as well as the empty line above it.
Change this:
or a limited timeframe.</p>
<h2>Arboretum <!--lots

To this:

<h2>Arboretum</h2>
Hope that helps,

I can't get Text Wrap to work for me CS5

Hello,
Okay, time for my stupid question of the week! I am having lots of trouble getting text to wrap around an object. I'm almost embarassed to ask this, since it's so basic.
I am using the 30 day trial version of CS5.
I have tried everything. I've followed the following tutorials and nothing happens when I press Object >Text Wrap>Make.
http://designertoday.com/Tutorials/Illustrator/5616/Wrap.text.around.Image.Illustrator.CS3 .Tutorial.aspx
http://www.justskins.com/forums/wrapping-text-around-an-37063.html
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/illustrator/cs/using/WS714a382cdf7d304e7e07d0100196cbc5f-63efa .html
http://www.blog.spoongraphics.co.uk/tutorials/wrapping-text-around-an-image-in-illustrator
All the tutorials have different instructions. I have tried them all and tried so many variations. From what I can piece together, this is the correct sequence:
create new page
use the rectangle tool to create a rectangle
paste text in rectangle (I've also typed it in)
file>place and select image (I've tried pasting it in too)
select only image and ensure image lies above text in layer box
object>text wrap>make
I've tried all sorts of variations - selecting image and text, selecting text only, pasting image instead of placing and get the same result.
Any assistance that can be offered would be much appreciated.
Mary

Text and object MUST be on the same layer.
Text MUST be on top of object to be wrapped.
Text MUST be area text.
Are all of the above true?
From reading your steps, you've got the text behind the object to wrapped, becuase you created the text, then placed/pasted an image. If you were to place/paste the image, then create the text, you'd be set.
Select the text and choose Object > Arrange > Move to front. Then try wrapping the text.

How to get text wrapping in single cell?

I know there's a text wrap setting where text will either go across horizontally, covering other cells, or stay in the same cell.
But I'm not sure how to change the setting where text will wrap in the same cell, and the row will become wider to accommodate the extra text. Some cells seem to be doing that, others don't.

Cash88 wrote:
It's not text wrapping, I didn't know what to call it.
When you add more text, rows either widen so that you can see all the text, or the row doesn't widen and it gets cut off at the end.
If you have wrap set to 'on' for a cell, the cell will expand vertically to accommodate more text as it is entered. This will cause the row containing the cell to also increase in height. Neither the cell nor the row will increase its width.
If wrap is set to 'off' for a cell, excess text will flow into an empty cell in the direction away from the edge to which the text is aligned in that cell. If any cell in that direction has content, the text display will be truncated at the boundary of that cell.
To my knowledge, there's no setting that will make cell width increase automatically to accommodate more text.

Text wrap for a paragraph: How to define the width of a Text box / active text area? I simply need a longish text to wrap within the frame!

Hello, I've been searching for a good while in the forums now, but have found no solution or real mention of the problem – I hope some of you can help.
I want to very simply layout a text between scenes, a slightly longer text that wraps within the frame margins. Here's an example of how I want it to look:
Now, I couldn't for the life of me get the Custom Text to behave like that, as there are no parameters to set for the width of the text area. The Text Size, yes, along with the Tracking, Baseline and all that, but the width of the text box, no. The above was created by customizing one of the other Text Generator presets that happened to be left aligned.
However, this preset has a fade in/fade out transition, which I do not want. There's no way to remove this transition as it seems integrated into the Text Generator (meaning they are not really presets, but separate kinds of Text objects? Very silly.)
So I am asking you: Is there any way to get the Custom Text generator to behave like that? Just a text paragraph as above. Below you'll see all I can manage with the diffferent Custom Text parameters. Any kind of repositioning and resizing of the text just changes the position and size of the frame – but the actual text items are just cropped off where they extend out of that frame. Apparently the bounding box for the text is just some default length, and I can't find any way to adjust the width. See below my different attempts.
The same text pasted into a Custom Text generator clearly extends outside the frame:
Here Transform just moves – or resizes – the video frame that the Text Box exists inside:
The Crop gives similar results, and of course Distort doesn't get me closer to what I need, either. There should be simply a Text Box Width parameter to set somewhere, but if it exists they have hidden it very well. How do you do it?
Thanks for any help, this is a silly problem, but one of now many trivial problems that amount to me growing quite dissatisfied with FCPX. Hopefully I've just overlooked something.
All the best,
Thomas

Thomas...same kind of crap here.
I used Custom Text - entered a sentence, hit return, entered another.
Set to 72 pt.
The default alignment is centred - I want left aligned text...the text start point stays at the centre of frame and the sentence runs off the edge of the bounding box.
There is no settings in the Text or Title inspector dialog to correct that!
Using Transform will not sort it!

In the Pages Program template on the 4 column page a text is wrapped around a violinist.
How do I have to prepare the photo to have a similar result.

You need to have an image with a more or less even background or at least contrasting to the main part.
Menu > Format > Instant Alpha > run the cursor over the parts you want to eliminate
With the image selected > Inspector > Wrap > check Image causes wrap > click on 2nd icon > Text Fit > 2nd icon
Play with Extra Space and Alpha to get what you want.

Text not wrapping on Data Review Screen

We are having an issue with text not wrapping on a screen, this has happened on the interview screens as well as the data review. Has anyone had this problem before? And how to fix it?
Thank you,

This will be a CSS issue which can be addressed by modifying main.vm.css. I don't know much about CSS, but when I had this issue with the data review screen for a custom look and feel I was working on, I was able to resolve it by specifying a data-review-item width which was smaller than the width of my banner graphic.
In my example, my banner graphic was 960px in width, and I added "width: 820px;" for data-review-item in main.vm.css:
.data-review-item {
clear: both;
width: 820px;
}If you have a CSS person around, get them to take a look at main.vm.css and I expect they'll be able to work out the right fix for your specific situation.
Cheers,
Jasmine

I just got a macbook air for xmas- now i wont get texts on my iPhone. they go right to my laptop. how can i get the texts to go to BOTH devices?

My hubby just got me a macbook air for Xmas which is awesome. Set it up to be able to ichat on it as well as on my iphone. Only now i wont get texts on my iphone- ONLY on my laptop. How can i configure so that I can get texts on my computer AND my phone. NOT just one or the other? Please help!

Hi,
The Mac version will use your Apple ID as the first and only choice...
... Until you add the same Apple ID to Messages on the iPhone.
Once this is done it is best to Restart the app on the Mac.
This will then get at least one, possibly two pop up saying the iPhone in using the Apple ID and the iPhone Number.
Accepting these Pop ups will enable the iPhone as an ID to be used in the Receive At List.
It will also appear in the drop down at the bottom for "Start New Conversations from"
If you did not set iyt up like this then remove the apple ID from the iPhone in the Settings > Messages.
Place the iPhone in Airplane mode to break with the server.
Take it out of Airplane Mode and re-add the Apple ID in the Messages settings.
Then Restart the app on the Mac as above.
Having done this you can still turn Off the Apple ID on the iPhone (receive as the iPhone number only) or disable the iPhone Number on the Mac (receive Apple ID stuff only)
The Start New Conversations option on the Mac version means you could use the iPhone number so people don't get your email.

How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5?

How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5 with the Maverick system?

What may be overlooked in Pages v5 is the notion of combining Text Boxes via the Menu > View > Show Arrange Tools. When you select two Text Boxes, an extra panel unfolds at the bottom of the Arrange Tools window. Uncheck one Text Box and this panel abruptly disappears.
One can achieve text flow effects between Text Boxes differently based on how one positions the Text Box overlap, and choice of effect above. Though not the accustomed flow found in Pages ’09 v4.3, flow does occur. Consider the possibilities of combining a Shape and a Text box to cut an irregular Text box.
If I create two Text Boxes and position them side by side with outline touching and choose Unite, this creates one larger Text Box and text flows across and down. On the otherhand, if I overlap the upper left corner of a lower Text Box over one above and to the left, then choose Union, pasted text fills the first Text Box and then flows across and down into the other box. Here is a Union example:
Intersect will leave a small Text Box where the two overlap, so not much value there. Subtract will cut a chunk out of one Text Box that is the size of the overlapping piece of the second Text Box:
And Intersect will leave an island in the center where the two Text Box overlap, with flow jumping over this bridge.
Clearly, this is not what we were accustomed to in the past, but with imagination, style, and layout tuning, it does offer alternative Text Box creativity and layout. Of course, there is the option of simply returning to the previous Pages version for true Text Box linking that most will want to use.

Since the last update for my Iphone 4s i dont get text messages when connected to wifi. my wife is getting them. Imessage is switched off on both phones.

since the 6. version update. of my Iphone 4s My wife was getting my text messages. I found the problem was caused by Imessage when connected to Wifi. I deactivated Imessage on both phones to solve the problem. I now have updated my Iphone to 6.1.1 and i dont get text messages anymore. I have Imessage deactivated on my phone but my wife is getting my text messages again. my wifes phone was not updated to 6.1.1 because the last update lost all her contacts from her phone and we had to but them back in one by one from the outlook list. Her contact are listed in outlook on a seperate list to mine but we can only get my contacts download to her phone. We use the same laptop to sysc phones.
My Iphone does not download photos to My Pictures anymore. I have to copy them across to a folder. I cant find where it backs them up to.
I have lost all confidence in Apple now as i was forced to update to 6.1.1 because of 3G reception issues and not reciving calls and now back to spending several hours trying to fix my phone to recieve a basic text message.

Are you and your wife sharing apple id?
If you are that is the reason why she is seeing your imessage.
On both phone go to settings - message - send&receive - make sure the cell is the default.
You will have to uncheck or remove the apple id.
