How do I alphabetize a list in Pages 5.1?

I've found threads on how to do it in the old version of Pages, but I am having trouble now finding how to do it in the newest version. Any help? I've got my text into a table already.

Then you are not using "Mac OS X (10.5.8)"?
Like many things in Pages 5, forget it!
The unfortunate solution to just about everything with Pages 5 is:
Your previous version of Pages should be in yoir Applications/iWork folder.
Trash/archive Pages 5 after Exporting the files, and rate/review it in the App Store.

How can i sort a list of pages in CQ?

Hello
I have a structure like this in CQ:
/content/mywebsite/page3
/content/mywebsite/page1
/content/mywebsite/page5
/content/mywebsite/page2
/content/mywebsite/page4
when i open mywebsite i see a menu with the list of pages in it like this:
page3
page1
page5
page2
page4
is it possile to sort those pages in the server creating some kind of view?
or is it better to sort it in the client side?

Hi,
One way would be to go to the /content hierarchy in CRXDE and move pages(drag drop) in the order you want to see in the websites OR manually edit the content.xml to have the order you wish to see.

How can I sort a list in Pages?

hey folks, i have just finished typing my first long report on pages and must say how impressed i have been at how simple it is to use. Just a quick query really, i have approximately 50 references which are essentially their own paragraphs and i want to sort them into order Author A-Z. In Word if i highlighted the list i could press sort and it would do it for me, i just wondered if there was a similar function in pages.
Cheers.

Select the paragraphs to sort.
menu Format > Table > Convert text to table
select the table cells then
Inspector > Table > Edit Rows and columns > Sort …
menu Format > Table > Convert table to text.

Alphabetize a list in pages

I have made a list of I.D.'s and passwords for various sites I access, personally. I want to put them in alphabetical order. The doc. was generated thru the use of "Pages." What is the easiest way to reorganize my doc so it is in alphabetical order?

After you installed the service in the proper place you can in Pages when you have selected the text you want alphabetised click on Service in the Pages menu. If you don't get the long list of option click on Service and you will be ported to the system preferences where you can click on buttons to set which services you want to use. Then go back to Pages and try again.

How do I alphabetize within a pages document?

How do I alphabetize a list within a pages document?

You sort a table there, but if you want a more permanent solution, OSX has a very useful but less well known method of extending application abilities:
Services are little snippets of code that do simple tasks and can be accessed by any suitable application from under the Application menu > Services
First download WordServices (free).
Unzip the file and double click on the WordService.service file. If you have the default security on your Mac, you may have to do this 3 times before it lets you open it. Once you have opened it, it will be installed.
In Pages:
Menu > Pages > Services > Services Preferences… > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Services > Shortcuts > scroll about half way down and check Sort Lines Ascending/Descending and any other services that catch your eye
Now when you select your text list > Menu > Pages > Services > Sort Lines Ascending/Descending
This is available everywhere not just Pages..
As it is now part of your menus, you can give it your own custom keyboard shortcut in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts

Creating a list in Pages with hierarchy

How do you create a list in Pages with hierarchy?

Hierarchy is just a matter of indent levels.
Pages works by example so having set up the initial one level list, hit a return after one of the points and tab to move to the next level.
Then apply settings in:
Format > Text > Bullets & Lists > to each level if it isn't already an indented List
You can save the final set of hierarchical list as a List Style for reuse.

and

where they add a list to an app
Can any one suggest me the idea? I am bit confused.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to show the different list view in a page in SharePoint Hosted App.
We can use jQuery and cross-domain library to achieve it.
The following articles for your reference:

How do I set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2, and keep that system of numbered lists saved?

I have tried to set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2 but have not succeeded. I have read similar questions concerning this but this has not helped me...
When I say numbered lists I mean something extremely important and simple, for instance:
1. Introduction
1.1. Background
1.2. Purpose and Questions
2. The Legality of Clause X
2.1. Legality under Article 101.1
2.2. Legality under Article 101.3
And so on...
Heading 1. is selected as "Heading", 1.1 is selected as "Heading 2", and if I had 1.1.1 it would be selected as "Heading 3" and so on...
I have navigated my way to the Format window, and under the tab "Style" and down to "Bullets & Lists". I have here selected the following: Numbered, Numbers, 1. 2. 3. 4., Tiered Numbers, Continue from previous.
There are several problems with this currently.
First, based on the example it becomes "2. Background" when it should be "1.1 Background" instead.
Second, after writing some body text between the headings and then select a new heading, all the previously selected settings I mentioned above in "Bullets & Lists" have to be reselected.
So, how do I set numbered lists for headings, or so called sub-headings, in Pages 5.2? And how do I keep that selected system of numbered lists saved so I don't have to retype it for every new heading I type? (e.g. so that Pages knows that every time I choose Heading 2, I want it to number the heading in the way selected)
Obviously, manually writing the numbers for every heading is not a viable option, as it makes table of contents problematic and is simply tedious. You need an automatic way of doing it, especially if you write long documents where keeping headings in order is absolutely essential.
Also, reverting back to previous Pages versions (like v. 9 I think?) is not an option as that does not exist on my recently purchased Macbook Pro.
I need to be able to do this on Pages 5.2 and do it automatically.
I appreciate any help with this.

iWork '09 is not "outdated" it still works and works extremely well and whilst not perfect with MsWord it is far far better than Pages 5.2 which has a stream of major issues with exporting. It is also way better and faster to use than Microsoft Office.
So what is your time and work actually worth? If it is less than $19.99 for 6 months, you may as well just chuck it in and take that job on minimum wages.
You are assuming things for Office 2014 with absolutely no inside knowledge. Much as we assumed Pages 5 was going to be the long awaited improvement, but ended up being a downgrade to match the iOS version, Microsoft is headed the same way with their mobile versions.
This is not like getting the "latest" pair of pants where you go with the crowd and throw out your cigarette legs which replaced the flares, which replaced your low cuts which replaced your cigarette legs, which replaced…
This is work.
If it does the job and does it well, use it. There is nothing out there to really match what Pages '09 does. Yet.
LibreOffice can do most but not all, but has a UI that only a mother could love. It's great redemption is that it uses both open formats and the standard Microsoft formats and is under active development. It also opens and saves to just about everything. When they finally work out the Pages formats, I'm sure they will open those as well.
I use a lot of professional software. Just because the publisher's marketing department says change the product so we can sell more, doesn't mean you have to pay any attention whatsoever. Adobe being a classical example. Most designers are just ignoring their latest subscription based bloatware and getting on with their work.

How can I get a list of all my annotations to send to someone else, listed by PAGE #, not order.

The comments list is sorted by page by default. If it's not for some reason, click the "Sort comments" button and select that option. It looks like this:

You can try to add a 3rd party spellchecker

DW5 - How to list all pages that link to a specific page?

Hi all, I'm using DW5 and need to completely remove a specific page. How can I get DW to check through the whole site and make a list of all other pages that link directly to the page I want to remove?
I'm sure it must be simple, but can't seem to get the result I need. Can someone spare a few minutes to spell it out for me please?

I would do a Find on the page name...source code...in the entire local site...and be given a list of pages that include that page name. Then you can go into the Results window, where they are listed, and by double-clicking go directly to each reference.
You may also save a copy of the report in XML... (the save icon is a small floppy disk image on the left border of the Results Panel.
