In Pages, how can I set a background for the whole document?

I tend to regard Pages as more of a page layout program than a simple word processor, so I use it for stuff containing graphics as well as text. Now I want to put a kind of frame around every page in the document, and I want this frame to be effectively a background for everything else, with it being my responsibility for the remainder of the material to stay in the frame. I can't see any feature that allows this apart from Headers and Footers, and as far as I can see, these are not supposed to occupy the whole page, just the top and bottom.
Can anyone give a good technique for configuring a background in this way?
TIA

This forum has helped me to partially answer my own question, in that I see now that I want to create a template with a section master that contains my graphic. But when I tried to do this, the menus for making a graphic (in my case a grouped item) part of a section master just didn't work. I am trying to follow the Help page "Using Master Objects (Repeated Background Images), but so far I can't get the menus to undim.
Can anyone help?

  • How can I set a default for webpages to expand to full screen?

    How can I set a default for webpages to expand to full screen? Every webpage I go to does not expand to a full screen which causes me to have to ctrl+++ each time. How can I set my preference to expand to full screen automatically?
    Thanks.

    The Firefox [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Page+Zoom Page Zoom] feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox, as with some other browsers.
    Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

  • How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox

    My younger sister executed my firefox just at this afternoon(she originally use IE), and she saw something that can't be seen. How can I set a password for firefox so that everyone have to enter the password before executing firefox?

    Also see this for an English version of Profile Password:
    *Profile Password: http://nic-nac-project.de/~kaosmos/profilepassword-en.html#PPF
    It is an extension to protect the profile with a password, but being an extension that protection can easily be bypassed by starting Firefox in [[Safe mode]].<br />
    So do not rely on it.<br />
    If you want to protect content then you have to use methods supported by the OS like a separate user account with a password or an encrypted file system.

  • How can i set a layout for MIGO screen

    Hello all,
    How can i set a layout for MIGO screen. & make that layout default. Like i want to drag Requistioner column next to quantity in MIgo screen. temporarily I can drag but is there a way to save as layout & save it.

    Hi
    First you arrange however you want and then go to table settings which is there in the right corner of the item details and create a variant and save.
    Find a button with blue yellow and white at the top end above the vertical drag bar when put the cursor it will show you as Configuration.
    After creating the variant tick the check box use as standard setting below the variant
    Hope it helps

  • How can I set a password for my pictures on iPad Air ?

    How can I set a password for my pictures on iPad Air ? if anyone have my iPad access mail or something I don't want anyone access my photos so how can I set it up.

    You can't set a password for the Photos nor Mail apps, you can only set a passcode for your iPad as a whole (via Settings > Passcode).
    There are third-party photo management apps such as Photo Manager Pro which you can copy your photos into from the Photos app (and then delete them from Photos), that app allows you (via its settings within the app) to set a password to access it.
    For email you could access your email via a browser (and not have your password stored in the browser), or see if there are any email apps in your country's app store which have a password option

  • How can I set default values for Allocate Mode in AO config?

    Hi, How can I set default values for allocate mode in AO config. To be specific, in the attached vi, I need to set the Allocate Mode in AO Config to 'Use FIFO Memory (6)' if the value inside my case structure is false and to 'no change (0)' if the value inside the case strusture is true.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Create two constants for the Allocate Mode input (right click > create > constant). Place one in the true case of the case structure, and place the other one in the false case. Wire them to the same tunnel (border of the case structure), then wire the tunnel to the Allocate Mode terminal of the AO Config. I don't have Traditional DAQ installed, but that should do it.

  • How do I set a reminder for the last day of every month

    Have I missed something? But how do you set a reminder for the last day of every month to recurr indefinatley in iOS6? Sorry if this is really simple but I just can't seem to work it out. Any help gratefully received.

    Hey Mattye88 not sure if you have seen but actully you can do this, but for some reason you have to use Siri.  If you bring up Siri and say "set a reminder ever 4 weeks from next wednesday to check the gas meter" it will set one and it will work just fine, I have reminders to water a Bonsai every three days and it works fine it just shows as custom repeat on the user interface.  Alas it seems you can not use Siri to set one for the end of the month though which is why I am in this threed.  Still hope it helps you to know how to sort this problem atleast.

    How can I put something in for the last Wednesday of every month

    I don't believe there is such a custom repeat option with the iPhone's Calendar app, but if you are syncing calendar events with a supported calendar app on your computer or syncing calendar events over the air with an email account that supports it with an option to create such a custom repeating event with the online calendar, set up the custom repeating event there.
