In Pages: How to change text direction in cell?

in Pages, I'd like to change the direction of the text in a table I'm creating.
In the first column (one long column -- I've merged the cells) the work is reading left to right. How do I make it read up and down?
Thanks in advance!

Here's what I found:
Insert a text box from the INSERT menu.... it's also available at the FORMAT menu, but I chose Insert.
Don't drag yet!
place cursor and type your text.
Then, click on the METRICS menu in the Inspector pane
Rotate. Getting exactly to 90 degrees was difficult. Maybe because I called it 90% at first!
Now you can drag.
It might look better to spread out the letter spacing in the text you have entered. Do that from the "text" tab in the Inspector pane.
if you double click, or even click too much, the text box will jump back into a horizontal position -- Dont' worry, it's trying to let you edit.
just go back to "Metric" and change it back to 90 degrees.
Thanks Barry for answering this 3 years ago, and getting me started!

Here's what you should do:
suppose your string is "abc" and you want to display that reversed:
1. reverse the string
2. find where your start point is (where you're going to draw 'a'

How to change text in PDF doc. which is a musical score

Hello,
I'm new here, so please excuse me if I do or say something I shouldn't.
I need to change the words in a musical score because the font is too small. OCR recognition doesn"t work because there are illustrations that are different from images or text... Is there a way to get in there and make the changes I need to do?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply, but I have Adobe Reader 9 Pro. Will it still not
work ?

Changing text direction for Hebrew lines within a document.

We are new to Creative Cloud. We need to be able to chnage text direction within an In Design document. We looked up how to do it, and while the directions were clear (clicking on change character direction from the character options menu), our character options menu does not include changing text direction as one of the options. We just joined the creative cloud a few weeks ago and have the most updated version; what do we need to do?

Do you have the CC Desktop Appliction installed (It's sort of a command central for CC)? If not, get it at https://creative.adobe.com/
The icon should be near the top right corner.

How to change Apple ID in cell

Hello,
I have a problem. Somebody broke into my Apple ID and changed e-mail and pass, so now I can't get in.
I made new Apple ID, but I don't know, how to change it in my cell, primary in iCloud setup.
Can you help me?
Thanks
Best Regards

If the old ID is your ID, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

How to change text + links in footer of existing template

Hello,
I need to change the text and links on the template footer that goes to all TABs. (Home, Articles, About Bluemont, BCA, Contact Us).The file is named NavigationBlank.dwt."
This footerwas created to link visitors to our "join or contribute" page on another site. Now I want to stop using that external site and build the capacity to take memberships within the BluemontVA.org site itself. However the template footer can't be changed so easily as text on a page.
I am webmaster for a local nonprofit (web address = www.BluemontVA.org), but work on a website I inherited. It is a wonderful design, but I don't fully understand it. I have not worked with templates before.
I have read O'Reilly on "Adding a basic editable region" in a template, but need further help.
A couple questions worry me:
How much damage may I have done already by trying? For example, I do seem to have removed the old text/links and added a new text message on the NavigationBlank.dwt page -- but these changes do not show up on the other TAB pages.
Also, when I place the cursor n the design side it no longer tracks to the corresponding spot on the code view. (the cursor shows up in code view way above where it is supposed to be by the text). This is true for the home page and also for several pages I took a look at.
Can I follow instructions to change the template from any of the pages on which it appears? Or do I have to be at NavigationBlank.dwt?
Thanks for any help or advice you can provide.

I'm confused.
Working With Dreamweaver Templates (.dwt files).
PART 1
    1. Create a page with all the sitewide elements (common header, footer, sidebar, CSS styles, etc..) that you will need for your project.   This requires some careful pre-planning even for small web sites.
   2. Validate your code & test this prototype page in all major browsers.
   3. When you're completely satisfied with the page layout, SaveAs Template.   DW will save this as a .dwt file in a site folder called Templates.
   4. DW will ask you to add Editable Regions for stuff that will change from page to page.   Do this and SAVE.
   5. Close your Template.dwt file.
PART 2
   1. File > New Page > from Template. Select the template you wish to use. Hit OK.
   2. This is a child page. An exact duplicate of your Template however you can only edit content within editable regions. Everything else is locked.
   3. SaveAs index.html (your home page) or some-other-filename.html.
PART 3
   Repeat PART 2 for each additional site page required.
PART 4
    1. Open your main TEMPLATE file and add a navigation menu with links to your site pages. Do not put this into an Editable Region! If you do it won't show up on child pages.
   2. SAVE.
   3. DW will ask if you want to populate changes to child pages. Hit yes.
   4. Publish all site pages to your server.
PART 5
   If you should ever need to edit your TEMPLATE .dwt file, Repeat PART 4.

How to change texts in MSS iView 'Attendance Overview'

Does anyone know how to change the texts in the MSS iView 'Attendance Overview', for example? It has the column 'Employees' and we would like to change it to say 'Associates'. Also, it has the text 'Choose Employee List' which has a drop down with 'All Employees' or 'Directly Reporting Employees' which we want to change 'Employees' to 'Associates' as well.

The easiest way to do the search is on the file system. The PAR files get unpacked under:
\usr\sap\<SID>\JC<XX>\j2ee\cluster\server<X>\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root
you can also browse this via the portal goto
System Administration --> Support
There you will be able to browse the deployed par files... but the file system is easiest.

How to change TLFTextField direction at runtime?

I create a TLFTextField object at design time and need to change its direction at runtime, how this could be possible?
the following code did not work and simply ignored:
var myText:TLFTextField = MyText;
myText.textFlow.direction = "rtl";
What should I do?

Yes, it work and I was know it, for this reason I emphasis that I created control at "DESIGN time", I want to change the direction of controls that created at design time not creating at runtime with var tf:TLFTextField = new TLFTextField();
To reproduce the problem create TLFText on your scene with text tool and name it "MyText" then
var tf:TLFTextField = MyText; // instead new TLFTextField();
..rest of your code
now you will see that nothing will be change! I struggled many hours but still no success.
Do you have any idea in this case?
