Is there a way to outdent the first sentence in a paragraph in Pages?

Is there a way to outdent the first sentence in a paragraph in Pages? The essay is finished and I am just adding some finishing touches to the piece and i Just want to outdent the first sentence in the paragraph but I cant find a way to do this. Can any on ehelp me with this. Thank you.

It's called a hanging indent. It's a two-step process using the ruler. Move the indent to the point you want the second & subsequent rows then move the small bar on top of the triangle to the left. Or use the Text inspector as in this screenshot.

  • Is there a way to get the Mendeley references manager to work with pages?

    Is there a way to get the Mendeley references manager to work with pages?  If not, what is the best reference manager to use with Pages?  I hate "Endnote" and, while I like "Papers", it does not have much support for shared libraries (with collaborators--their Livfe option only permits 50 shared papers and does not work well) or synching a single library across multiple Macs (i.e. home+work).  I need a good reference manager that supports 1) synching across multiple Macs, 2)working with collaborators and 3) has no problem importing different reference styles.  I don't want to use Word or Endnote unless I absolutely must--Pages is much better for everything else I do.  This is for use in preparing scientific manuscripts and grant applications.  Thanks.

    If you have not done so already, make sure you also ask the people who make it:

  • I have a A4 document (569 pages) and within that A4 there are few A3's. Is there a way to isolate the A3's or find out what page numbers are A3's instead of scrolling through all the 569 pages???

    thank you for the info... however I'm done buying pdf readers.... I've got three now, that should suffice.
    I don't think there's a problem such as you mentioned because the pages are all similar : text and drawings. Some of the pages with drawings work, other similar pages don't.
    I converted with Calibre to epub format and this seems to work !!!
    So good so far...
    Now I need to find a conversion to pdf to allow me to use goodreader or iannotate.
    Basically... the text is ok, because a conversion allows reading. So a shortcoming by Apple in my opinion. Again, all pdf's should be readable on such an expensive tool !!!

  • HT4897 Is there a way to delete the first alias created that's labeled imap?

    I created an icloud email address I no longer want to use. I see ways of creating a new alias but no way of deleting the first one that's labeled imap. Help!

    No, your iTunes account is completely separate and does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud (or other services).
    To create a new account and migrate your data to the new account, first save any photo stream photos that you want to keep that aren't already backed up by opening your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  Also save any iWork documents you may be syncing with iCloud.
    Then go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, and when prompted, choose Keep on My [iDevice].  Then sign in with a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom, which will require a separate non-Apple email that must be verified).  Next, turn you iCloud data syncing back to On, and when prompted, choose Merge to upload your data to the new account.  When you turn Mail to On, you will be prompted to choose your @icloud.com email address, which must be different than your old one.
    Note: you can only create a limited number of iCloud accounts on a single iOS device, so you can only do this a limited number of times.  (While this number isn't documented, I believe it's three.)

  • Is there any way to set the default for *.doc document so that Pages opens them automatically?

    I have a number of Ms Word documents because I used to have Word for Mac before the last OS release.  Now, of course, when I double-click on them, I get a message saying that PowerPC isn't supported.
    Now Pages will open these files.  Is there any way to change the default for *.doc files so that a double-click will open them in Pages? 
    (Instead of me going to the trouble of finding out where they are actually located on the hard drive so that I can open pages and say - here, open this file--even though you didn't create it--)

    Click on a .doc file and type Cmnd I to open Get Info. In the Open with: menu select Pages, then click on Change All…

  • Is there a way to bypass the first two inspection block after first cycle in Vision builder AI?

    I want to inspect the C-C of a matrix of holes (holes side by side). But when I do re-cycle the routine, the hole #'s change location (not in same place twice) and the my C-C are all not side by side and all over the place. For example, diaganal 4 holes away, etc...

    laj,
    I'm not sure that I completely understand the question that you are asking in your post. You may want to repost your question with some additional information and explanation to allow this forum to help you more effectively.
    As for the question that you posed in the title of your email, can you bypass the first two steps of your Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (VBAI) script? The answer is unfortunately no. VBAI is designed to repeatedly run through the same script and does not allow only a portion of the script to run.
    If you need more control over your application than VBAI can provide, you may need to move a programming language like LabVIEW, which will allow for lower level decision making.
    Please post a follow up if you have any additio
    nal information you would like to add, or have additional questions.

  • Is there a way to make the first Firefox tab a permanent, blank, fixed tab??

    I would prefer, as the title implies, LIKE to have my first Firefox tab be a fixed permanent blank tab. In other words, It would never assume the address of the first site I type or click on in the address field, but would act as "an anchor" tab.
    Is this at all possible??

    You can set the <b>browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab</b> pref to false on the <b>about:config</b> page to prevent closing the last tab from closing that window and make a close button appear if only one tab is open.
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • Is there any way to change the color scheme in a document in Pages?

    I have come from a PC using Publisher for a weekly newsletter and am trying to use Pages to accomplish the same thing.  i want to change the color scheme from week to week and have not found a way to accomplish this.
    I am currently using Word for Mac for this, but I would like to move over to Pages.  I'm playing with it some, but can't seem to find a way to change the color of the publication from week to week.  To change to another template all together would cause me to have to reinvent the wheel each and every week, and I'm not willing to do that.
    Adobe Illustrator is an option, but it looks mighty complicated to set it up...  And I've balked at the price tag.
    Any suggestions?

    Pages does not have Themes like Word.
    There might be other ways to achieve what you want by swapping master objects and changing colors of Styles. A bit more work but not horrendously more.
    You can name color swatches in the Color Picker so you could set up a set of colors there then update styles and objects systematically using those swatches.
    Illustrator would be an extremely poor choice for a Newsletter.
    Have a look at the new Swift Publisher 3 in the App Store, currently 30% off. They have added some very good tools that have brought it into a much more Pro usable form. Including many key features that Pages lacks.

  • Is there a way to default the setting to 140% zoom on every page?

    I am new to firefox, used opera for years, I am trying to find a way for every page to be viewed at 140% zoomed view since I have poor vision. I know I can I can use crtl + to zoom, but I have to do that on each new page.

    There are some add-ons that can be used to change the zoom level on all sites, for example:
    * NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint
    * Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level

  • Is there any way to change the formatting of pre-made documents in pages?

    Specifically trying to change the margins in the Business Resumé template. Thanks.

    You change the margins in the Documents sidebar.
    How ever if it is the CV I am thinking it is in Pages 5.5.1, Apple constructed it using Textboxes for the headings to the left.

    Some older Apple keyboards and keyboards not made by Apple may not allow Command-F2 to toggle display modes. You should use an aluminum wired or wireless Apple keyboard to toggle TDM on and

  • I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?

    I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?

    I would also like this issue addressed.
    I am using a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and when it is connected to my iPhone 4, email and text sounds are not audible through the phone. The phone just vibrates when a new text or email is received.
    I don't really care if it plays through the headset, but it should at least play through the phone. I tested the headset from a BlackBerry and the alerts play fine.

  • Is there a way to not indent the first sentence in a chapter?

    I understand how to indent paragraphs in the text, but with proper sentence construction you don't indent the first sentence of a chapter. Is there anyway that you have found to do this in Author while still indenting the rest of the paragraphs?

    Do you already have a custom style you can leverage, say between para1 and para2, as an example?
