How to rid a Page of a thing???

The thing is the little header box (or footer box)
I have nothing in it. I want to rid the page of it because I somehow click my way into it accidently and waste time clicking out of it. I want it abracadabra poof GONE! I cannot make it go away even with "0" header and footer allowances. It's clinging to the page and will not let go. Please help me.

Changing the header & footer sizes to zero will move them out of the layout area &, even though you can still see them with layout showing, you won't be able to click in them.

  • How do I stop Pages automating things?

    The biggest problem I have is Pages automatically doing things I don't want it to do. For instance:
    I start a new table and the top two boxes are coloured grey.
    I try and use the = symbol in a box, and it turns it into a calculation.
    I use bold in a box, and it decides I want the next box to use bold bold text too.
    Is there any way to just get it to do what I want it to do, rather than what I've done before or thinks I'm going to do?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply.
    Surely there must be a way to remove the table header (and it goes onto the next page too). It's not a very common look, and so why it is put by default in every table Pages produces. I've discovered that it's fine to remove it after it's appeared, but it would be nice if it wasn't there at all.
    As regards the = symbol, again disappointing that it's acting as a spreadsheet rather than a table. Amazingly, I'm beginning to think Word is better for me in this regard is it 'helps' me less when I work.
    And, as is the way of things, I'm not able to reproduce the bold text issue. But the way i fix it is it highlight the whole of the row and remove bold, and that fixes it.
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can I use Pages 4.3 (from Retail pack) template on Pages 5.2 (from Mac App Store)?

    This is a new machine running on Mavericks bought last year since my old Mac had a hard-drive failure. Installed Pages (part of iWork '09 package), updated to Pages 5.0 from the Mac App Store and no issues. However, now I need to use some of the old Pages template (San Fancisco Letter to be specific) and the new Pages dosn't have that.
    So I had to extract the San Fancisco template from Pages '09 and tried installing under 'My Template' on Pages 5.3. But evertime I'm getting an error while installing. That's when I realised after going through the discussions here, that I can't install a Pages '09 template on Pages 5.3.
    So my question is how to use a Pages 4.0 template on Pages 5.3? Is it possible to install Pages 4.3 while Pages 5.2 is still installed? Is there a workaround?
    Note: I don't need Pages 4.3 but would like to use some of the templates from there, working on Pages 5.2.
    Thanks in advance - Sid

    Due to the huge number of missing features in v5.2 that were functional in Pages ’09 v4.3, many of the older version templates expect features/functionality that simply do not exist in v5.2. You should realize that Pages v5 is a brand new application/design, and not a progressive version enhancement to Pages ’09.
    When you updated to Pages v5, that process automatically moved Pages ’09 v4.3 into /Applications/iWork '09. You can continue to use the older Pages (and associated custom templates) on Mavericks.
    I would resist removing Pages ’09 from your machine, as it is functionally superior to Pages v5.
    Templates that you save with Pages ’09 v4.3 are kept in ~/Library/Application Support/iWork/Pages/Templates/My Templates
    Templates that you save with Pages v5+ are kept in ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iWork.Pages/Data/Library/Application Support/User Templates
    One of the things that I noticed about the original Pages v5 installation is that it transferred a small subset of My Templates from Pages ’09 into the above User Templates location. These were relative simple templates. The complicated ones did not migrate.
    Be certain to make a backup copy of any Pages ’09 template document. Once you open it in Pages v5+, it can no longer be opened in the older Pages application. Providing the template is compatible with Pages v5+, perform a File > Save as Template... to the default location.

  • How do YOU organize pages, create a site map, and use hyperlinks?

    I had to get out of bed to bring this up with you all; I couldn't stop thinking about this next learning curve. It is: How shall I organize the topics I have in my website? One extreme is to have all of the topics showing in all of the nav bars at the top of all the pages. The opposite extreme is ............ I cannot truly visualize it.
    I think that the big obstacle for me is that i don't want to hide any pages so well, so slickly, that they can be found only by the most focused and persistent website visitor. I can see how some pages could be lost to a lot of casual website viewers.
    On the other hand, there are some pages that are natural groups. In my case, the U.B.R.O.L. group is that. It is made up of five people and me. I have one page for a photo slideshow which has one photo of each of us, but then I have a separate page for Nigel and his photos, a separate page for Vali and her long bio and photos, and a separate page for Helen, her short bio and her many photos.
    Tonight I tried making hierarchies using hyperlinks, so that U.B.R.O.L. shows up in the Site Menu, but Nigel, Vali, Helen, and Peggy do not show up. To get to their photos, one would have to click onto the U.B.R.O.L. group page. Once at the U.B.R.O.L. page, one can then click onto Vali's, Nigel's, and Helen's page, and then from each of their pages there are 3 hyperlinks: one to return to U.B.R.O.L., and three more hyperlinks to click onto the others who have personal pages. (Peggy does not have a personal page because she is shy and never gave me more photos or a bio of herself. She prefers anonymity.)
    But even though I put those hyperlinks on those pages, I am having an internal concept war, my friends, and a solution is not at hand.
    I am thinking of how I am going to deal with the pages made for me, my husband, and my husband and I together.
    I cannot imagine clearly how a Site Menu would look at the topmost level and much less of an idea how each page would look several levels down.
    I welcome any direction you could send my way. I would like to know how you organized your pages, how you decided which pages would not be listed in the nav bar, and what you did to/with the pages that were not listed in the nav bar.
    Would you please send me the URL of your website so that I can SEE what you are talking about? I am not good at imagining what people say; I have to see it rather than imagine it.
    Lorna in Southern California

    Lorna, mostly from reading books, Iearned the following things.
    •Don't make me think (actually the title of an excellent book on webdesign)
    •Every information should be available in at most 3 clicks
    •Tell them where they are, where they can go and where they have been.
    IMHO, iWeb lends itself fairly well for these last 2 criteria. The Navbar is a very useful tool and I suggest you do not go too far away from it.
    On my current issue of the toy theatre magazine (which is NOT a beautiful website) I wanted to go in 3 languages; English, German and Dutch. I knew i was courting disaster but one can be so ambitious. This in fact meant that I had to do 3 sites. Sites being defined as a group of pages structurally belonging to each other.
    So I made an Index/Splash page with a nice picture, a title and 3 flags. These being links to the 3 versions. (I did not want to make them think on the Splashpage).
    Clicking a flag brings the visitor to a Contents page on their version of the site. Just like the Contents page in a book. Here they can choose to go to any of the items and on each and every page of the site is a Contents button that returns them there.
    Pages are numbered in the middle of the website, and to the leftside the number of (and link to) the previous page and to the right the same for the next page.
    The current issue is number 25, ( http://www.vischmarktpapierentheater ), the previous 24 were done in Freeway and the design stems from there.
    The translation to iWeb did work well but in the end the result was disappointing mostly because I wanted some slideshows, hated the "None .Mac accounts" version and went overboard with Keynote slideshows, really ugly.
    The other problem stems from the triple language idea. This meant that I had to do either 3 versions of each slideshow, or make one version accessible for every language. This menat some convoluted linking which I will never do again.
    In short If you want to go "deep", make various sites and link each starting page to you Index/Splash, keep the starting pages of each site on the Navbar Make a Contents sidebar or something like that on each of the starting pages, and than you can go anywhere within the required 3 clicks.
    Good Luck

  • How do I add pages to a pdf file?

    I am new to iMac.
    I am used to using Adobe Acrobat for Windows to create pdf files. In Acrobat, when you scan a page, you have the option to add the page to an existing pdf file.
    I know how to use the Scan feature on Print & Fax to create pdf files on the iMac.
    I can not figure out how to make a pdf more than one page (unless I use the document feeder to scan in a multiple pages at once.) When I use the flat bed scanner, I can not figure out how to scan another page into the same file.
    I also can not figure out how to add another page to an existing pdf file.
    It does not appear Adobe Acrobat is available for the Mac, just Adobe reader. If it was, I would just buy that.
    Does anyone know how to do these two things, or a program that can?
    Thanks,
    -Lee

    You mean it didn't take over your printing system and force you to use it?
    It didn't break print to PDF functionality?
    It didn't install a bunch of software you didn't want and then promptly abandon half of it?
    It doesn't report an error if you try to remove the software that Adobe disabled 4 minutes after you bought it?
    It doesn't continually ask you to register your software and continue to ask no matter how many times you register?
    It doesn't continually tell you there are Adobe RAW updates that you need to install, even though you don't use that and don't want it, and tell it to ignore.
    It doesn't report an error when you give up and tell it to install the Adobe RAW update?
    Acrobat contains features that are useful and very much needed in a desktop publishing environment.
    As do many other competing programs. Apple Preview can generate perfectly good PDFs and is more than adequate for the vast majority of users. PDFClerk can do things Acrobat could never dream of.
    I have no experience of Acrobat Reader on the Mac so I can't comment on that.
    I do, so I will comment. It is slow, bloated, and very poorly written software. It must be updated weekly due to cross-platform security flaws that are actively being exploited. Even if you do install it to use some Adobe-only feature, you may wind up having to run Acrobat in Windows because the Mac version's output is so bad.
    All of the items I've listed here are just my personal experience. If you want more, just use the Apple Discussions search feature. Unfortunately, I haven't found an adequate replacement for Photoshop, so I still have that installed. Preview, however, is much better than Adobe Reader.

  • How long does one page in iWeb go?

    Hi,
    I currently have a website up on freewebs.com and now I have my own domain name and am working on making a new site with iWeb and just started using it the other day.
    When you are working on a page within iWeb lets say the Welcome page, are you limited to one page or can you keep on going within that page so it scrolls down. Let's say my first page is really 5 pages do I just keep adding stuff to that first page and it will automatically scroll when someone opens it in their browser (provided they click the down arrow)?
    What I'm really asking is, is their a limit to how long your first page is? I hope this is making sense here.
    S.

    I don't think that a page in iWeb is limited in it's length. There maybe a limit that apple has placed on it, but it is well past 6000 pixels. You can change how long your page is by opening the inspector and clicking on the second tab from the left. This will open your "page" dialouge. Edit the length of your page by increasing the number in the "content height" field. About the automatic updating of the length in your page; that does happen, but only when you move certain things. iWeb will not lengthen your page when you keep adding more stuff into it. It will increase the length, however, if you litterally move the position of something that is a default item in your selected template. For instance, iWeb will update the length of your page if you move the position of that default text field (wich is in French or somethinng) beyond the current page's "page length" limitation. You can see more clearly the boundaries wich you've set for yourself by changing temporarily the "browser background" color (also in the "page" dialouge in the inspector.
    One other tip: (this is not at all related) Personally I don't like the look or configuration of the links in Apple's provided navigation menu. I choose not to display the nav menu and I use my own. It takes more work - you have to worry about style and all of that in addition to coordinating all those links. so let's say you use a tab configuration like i do. I have five tabs, and I have about 40 pages on my website. That means I had to make 200 links just for my custom nav menu. Coordinating them to make sure each one is correctly configured is another thing. I think it's worth it though. - And the copy and paste technology invented 3 billion years ago has been used more and more by me to complete that task! check it out if you like at DesignNashville.com.

  • How to change the page header?

    Hi,
    I just installed and started using Plumtree 6.0 a month ago, and we are still in a trial phase for our company's portal.
    I want to change the default page header to replace Plumtree logo to my company's logo. I thought I can change it in the style sheet, but I didn't find where to change in the cssmill folder. I found an artical in edocs.bea.com saying I can modify the header by using ALI Publisher, but I don't know what's the right way to do it and faster.
    Can someone guide me how to change the page header?
    Thank you. (if this is not the correct forum to post the question, please let me know which forum should I go)

    Depends on what you want to do. Personally, I'd do a header portlet and not touch the Plumtree/BEA logos. They're likely to be overwritten when the product receives updates.
    This may seem like a lot of steps, but really - it goes quickly
    ** Think through what you want to display. If all you want to do is replace the image, but you wan to keep the overall layout style then you can create a simple replacement header
    Step 1 - create a header portlet
    =======================
    If you're using Publisher...
    =====
    * Create a new portlet - choose the Header portlet template
    * Upload your image / change the header in the rich text editor
    If you're not using Publisher
    =====
    * Personally, static HTML will do just fine - create a folder and html file called something like "mybanner/mybanner.htm" on your remote portlet server
    * Plop in an image (you'll want to swipe some adaptive tags for community and page name - can always stick those in later)
    * Create a new remote portlet web service that references this HTML page
    * Create a portlet from the web service - make sure the type is "header"
    Step 2 - turn it on
    =======================
    * Create a new experience definition (or modify default - I usually create a new one so you can move it between environments)
    * In the experience definition's "header / footer" settings area, tell the header to load from the new header portlet you created
    * If you created a custom experience definition, modify your experience rules to load this experience defiintion according to whatever parameters you think make sense (just be careful you don't knock out your login page - we usually use security groups to just say "hey - the user is logged in and is, in fact, a member of this portal - that'll still let your login pages load)
    Done
    May seem like a lot of work, but really it's just a series of simple steps. Advantage here is you can vary things as you see fit and also just feel safe that the next time Plumtree/BEA updates those imageserver files you'll be good to go. From there you can get as fancy schmancy as you like using adaptive tags, etc. Heck - make it a .NET app if you want and do some crazy personalization or something. Embed stock tickers, important news alerts, whatever.
    That help at all?
    Thanks,
    Eric

  • How to secure one page not entire application?

    Hi there,
    I'm looking for some guidance on how to secure individual pages on my site. I've read a number of articles discussing creating a login using the Application.cfc. The thing is this approach locks down the entire site. I only want to secure a page. In my scenario, if the user hasn't logged in, and goes to a profile.cfm page, they will be asked to login. Once they login, they will then be directed to the profile.cfm page.
    Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Novian

    Hi, Novian,
    An option that come directly to mind is to check for the specific page to be locked down in onRequestStart of your Application.cfc.
    This approach is relatively easy to implement but may not be the best approach (don't know how it might affect performance or something else). Basically, use a conditional in your onRequestStart method to see if the page being requested by the user is the page that needs to be secured. Something along the lines of:
    <cffunction name="onRequestStart">
         <cfargument name="target_page" />
         <cfif target_page is 'super-secure-page.cfm'>
              <!--- security stuff --->
         </cfif>
    </cffunction>
    There are, of course, other options but this was a quick and easy one that came right to mind.

  • I recently updated to the OSX 10.8.3 Operating Sistem.  I am writing a book and now cannot open any word document I've created.  Could not find a newer version of the Microsoft Word Processing Program.  Is Pages the next thing? Can I recover my documents?

    I recently updated to the OSX 10.8.3 Operating Sistem.  I am writing a book and now cannot open any word document I've created with the old system.  Could not find a newer version of the Microsoft Word Processing Program.  Is Pages the next thing? Can I recover my documents?  How?

    I'm in the same boat: new to OS X and Mac, and in the middle of a book. I switched because I heard about the the ease of using Mac, but so far, for me, it's been a nightmare. I bought 2011 Office Mac and hate everything about it, the most recent being the inability to open or cut or paste any of my original word files. I understand that this could have easily been done with earlier versions, but not Mountain Lion (which I learned is what OSX is.) Since I work with language, I am amazed at the assumptions of the Apple community. It helps to use common language and explain even the basics.  
    So all the helpful hints to use the latest version of Office Mac are to no avail. Now what?

  • How to create new page in wlp in runtime

    hi,
    How to create portal pages in run time (not at the admin console) give an option to the end users to create pages and configure it.
    Thanks
    Manu

    Hi Manu
    1) Can we entitle the page created to display to some users.
    You mean the "Page(s)" created by the End User when he clicks on Customize link. If so, note that this page will be available ONLY to that user. There is no other special entitlements to be assigned to. Because every user who customizes desktop will have his own set of Books/Pages/Portlets in the backend Portal Database schema. BUT if you want to set Entitlements to the Pages created by the Adminstrator, then YES, you can always set Entitlements to that Page, so that only specific set of Users, Roles (users belong toRoles) can access those Pages.
    2) Can we change the hyperlink of the page to some other external page.
    I am not clear with this question. When we create a Page from WorkshopIDE or Portal Admin Console or through DVT, first thing is, this page will have a unique page definition label. Now assume this page is part of some Book. So When this portal (or deskop) is rendered, Portal Framework Look and Feel files, will iterate through list of all Books and for each Book list of all Pages and construct the Menu(s) which are nohting but Hyperlinks. During this process, the hyperlink will be appended with the definition labels of each Page etc which is retrieved from Database (or .portal xml file incase of filemode). So you cannot change the hyperlink to point to someother page. Worst case, if you really want, then you need to modify the portal framework menu rendering code, to change the urls for specific page. Say PageA should be reidrected to PageB. So in your custom menu rendering code, when you hit the PageA, there check for page def label of PageA and if it matches, then add a different page def label say for PageB definition label. This is complex, but can be achieved. But my very first question is why do you want to do this and what is your exact usecase.
    Note that you can always generate dynamically Links for any Portal Pages using render url tags or APIs (PostbackURL, GenericURL etc). You can have this kind of code in any JSP or Pageflows.
    PostbackURL homeURL = PostbackURL.createPostbackURL(request, response);
    homeURL.addParameter(PostbackURL.PAGE_LABEL_PARAM, "page_card_services_1"); //page_card_services_1 is a page def label of some other page that I want to redirect to
    3) Can we integrate the page creation to the BPEL workflow.
    BPEL Workflow is nothing but a WebServices. Using CustomCode, this may be possible. One way I can think of is like this. First you need to have code/logic in some Pageflow or utility class to call BPEL Workflow. As mentioned first you need to create a WebServices client JAR for this BPEL WebServices. Then add this jar to the web-content/web-inf/lib folder. Then in pageflow or utility class, get the Service, Port and invoke process method on this BPEL and pass some input parameters. Now BPEL will do some internal processing and will return the page definition labels in the response XML object based on input parameters. Then in the Pagelfow or utility class, from this response object, extract page def label and use the above code snippet to redirect to that page. This should work.
    4) is there a way allow users to create new portlets from ucm and add content to the portlets.
    When we allow customization for end users, usually they can choose from list of Look and Feels, create or edit Books/Pages. They cannot create Brand New Portlets. From existing list of Portlets, they can add or remove them from any Page. NOW, if you use latest WLP 10.3.2, you can consume WebCenter ADF Portlets using WSRP. Also I guess there is a plug in for UCM with WLP 10.3.2. I did not work in this area so do not have full details. But assume that you already have some UCM Portlets integrated into your portal application by adminstrator. Then End User can choose to add these UCM Portlets to the pages that he cretaes. NOW coming to the content of the Portlets, this is something you can handle through Portlet Preferences. Considerr default out of box WLP original pageflow portlets. You can have some search criteria in a content portlet. This search criteria can be modified using Edit icon ie. Portlet Preferences. So user can customize the search criteria and get the results he is interested in.
    Thanks

  • How do I set pages up so that I can type a script for a radio play

    here we go, that is if I'm not driven mad by the process of trying to work out how to use this help thing.
    how do I set pages up so that I can type a script for a radio play ie the character then as an indented bit what they say

    Here's a sample, using what should be a familiar script to any radio drama buff, and showing a few of the features you'll want to incorporate into your template.
    Features noted by arrows:
    This is the "First line indent" margin stop, in this case, set to produce a 'hanging indent'. This stop sets the starting position of the first line of a Paragraph.
    Left margin stop: This stop sets the starting position of all lines in a paragraph except the first.
    When setting margins, set this one first, as it will drag the First line indent stop with it when moved. After setting this one (by dragging it to the position on the ruler where you want it to be), drag the rectangle (First line stop) left as far as it will go.
    Right margin stop.
    Running Header: This is a combination of text that appears on every page, plus the page number / page count—very useful information when someone drops his script. (Typed here, but a combination of typing and inserting the two number calculators from the Insert menu in the actual template.)
    Tab character. Used to move the first line of the dialogue into alignment with the rest of that paragraph. The Left margin stop also acts as a Tab stop.
    Paragraph break (made by pressing the return key). After a Paragraph break, the next line of the script will start at the left margin of the page. To break a long monologue into smaller blocks, use a 'soft return', made by pressing Shift-return, as I've done twice here...
    ...to produce an empty line without creating a 'new paragraph' (or in this case, a new item on the current list.
    Those are the basics for producing the body of your script.

    Barry

  • How can I extract page with showing the e-sign signatures?

    How can I extract page with showing the e-sign signatures? When I extract pages, the e-sign signatures are all disappear.  Or can I save the documents without verify the signatures?  When I open the documents, it need verify the signatures and then open it now.

    Hi Ada,
    The thing you have to realize is when using Acrobat or Reader to create a digital signature you are signing the whole document (all of the bytes in the document). You are not signing just the page where the signature appearance resides.
    Another thing to realize is the signature appearance (what you see on the page in the signature field) is not the signature itself. The signature proper is a block of hex encoded bytes written into the PDF file and not something you see (unless you open the file in a text editor). What you see on the page is just a graphical representation of the actual signature, but it's not the actual signature.
    When you extract a page (even if it had the signature appearance on it) it is just a sub-set of the signed bytes, and if the signature were to be extracted as well it would be invalid because the bytes in the extracted file would not match the bytes in the signature. Because the signature in the extracted document would always be invalid we just remove it.

  • How can i stop Pages and Numbers JUMPING ALL OVER THE SCREEN. MAKING ME SEASICK! PLEASE HELP

    how can i stop Pages and Numbers  screen JUMPING ALL OVER the place when i just touch my mouse. i have tried and tried to change the mouse settings - but it is the software. especially Numbers. you can't even see what the page size is until you print. i am so SEASICK! PLEASE HELP.

    Thanks for the trouble to reply. this problem only happens with Pages and Numbers for me. i have done all the tricks like restarting. the main problem is that the working space is not 'stable' - it has no 'ends' even on full screen. in Numbers - UNLESS I SET IT TO 25% VIEW (which is way too small) - the actual total 'work space' is way off the grid - so every time i move the mouse the table i am working on zooms off to left or right, at the slightest touch. i have set my mouse to no gestures!
    the thing is this did not happen before the latest upgrades.
    but thanks anyway. SG.
    if you are a techy person - i have another prob. in Mail i am unable to set the SORT / VIEW messages to BY DATE.
    (it used to be ok, at one time, too). now it continually reverts to BY SUBJECT oh so annoying !
    restarting etc does not change it. resetting preferences does not change it.
    maybe i need a new Mac ?
    mine is a 27-inch, Mid 2011. running latest.
