Pages - Background Color in Full Screen Mode

I love Pages. I use it every day. It has amazing functionality. That said, one of the updates a while back has me scratching my head.
I have two questions about full screen mode:
1. What happened to the all black background in full screen mode?
2. Is there any way to get the all black (or really any color but the horrible grey) background back when in full screen mode?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Pages v5 and minor releases was an entire new design, document architecture, and did not begin with Pages ’09 code. Therefore, your black background was never in v5, as well as the 100 or more missing features mentioned by Peter — and whose restoration is beyond incantation.
You can always poke Apple with a stick and request the return of the black background.

  • Background color in Full screen mode

    Can you change the color of the background around the project when publishing in full screen mode? I can only get it to view in white.

    Hi there,
    .exe cannot have an HTML background, so changing HTML background will not reflect in .exe output. There is no feature that we can change the background color for .exe output.
    Thanks.

  • Background color in Pages 5.5.2. full screen mode

    I updated to Yosemite, and my Pages updated to 5.5.2. It used to be that when I went into full screen mode in Pages, the background color was black. Now when I enter full screen mode, the background color is pale. Is there a way to change it back to black?

    There is no control over background color with Pages v5.5.2 in full-screen, or normal mode. If you had Pages '09 installed before the installation of Pages v5, then it was silently moved to /Applications/iWork '09. You could use the older Pages and have your black background.

  • Pages jumps after leaving full screen mode

    This has been driving me mad or quite a while. I'm a writer and I spend most of the day working with Pages. It's always in full screen mode, but whenever I switch to Mail or Safari, or if the system goes into screensaver mode, Pages jumps back from the insertion point, i.e. where I was working, to another place in the text, sometimes as far back as thirty pages. I have filed a bug report, but am curious to know if this common and if there is a solution. Any advise is appreciated.

    Never got this behavior on my machines.

  • HT2506 Change Full Screen Mode Background Color in Preview

    Is it possible to change the background color in full screen mode from black to white?

    It is not set up to make this change in Full Screen Mode.
    However you can change the background of the open file by Preview>Preferences>General>Background Color

  • Annoying single page view in full screen mode

    I have checked the “Enable Scrolling” in the “View/Page Display” menu to have a continuous page flow (with gaps between pages) and avoid page bouncing when moving from the bottom of a page to the top of the next page. It works as expected when in windowed mode but not in full screen mode.
    - Why isn’t it possible to have continuous page flow (with gaps between pages) when in full screen mode? It is as if Adobe Reader disregards the “View/Page Display” menu preferences and always reverts to “Single Page View” when in full screen mode!
    - Also it would be nice to have an option to display a vertical scroll bar to the extreme right of the screen in full screen mode to be able to quickly scroll the document.
    These two features are the primary ones that make me still using Foxit-Reader instead of Adobe Reader albeit Foxit-Reader has a lower PDF rendering quality.

    I have same problem.
    In Full Screen Mode , most functions are *NOT* working. For example , Show/Hide Menu Bar , Show/Hide Toolbars etc. Even use keyboard shortcut , they just *NOT* working.
    I am wondering is any chance to make Show/Hide Menu Bar , Show/Hide Toolbars working on Full Screen Mode ?
    At least , please add some keyboard shortcut to change Page Display .

  • Change Background on 3d Widget in full screen mode

    Hey,
    I am trying to have a custom background to my 3d widget that will be seamless from the regular size to full screen. So far if I want a photo in my bg I choose none for the Inspector > fill and then place it ontop of my photo in my book, however that photo goes away and the background turns black whenever you click to go to full screen mode on the 3d object. Is there any way to get that photo to be in the "full screen" bg as well as the regular book situation?
    Thanks,
    Stephany

    You can choose a background color or you can set the contents to a max size but I don't think you can stack up both contents image and background image once an image is tapped and popped large, sorry.

  • I pressed something, and it made the browser go into a "full screen" mode, how do I change it back? And also, something happened and made my FireFox text on all internet pages smaller, is there any way I could change this setting?

    I had pressed a button on my keyboard which made my text and pictures and the whole page smaller in size, can I change that? And how could I change my browser out of "Full Screen" mode?

    You can press F10 to toggle (View) Full Screen mode.

  • How do I go to a specific page in full-screen mode?

    I've been using page for almost 3 months now and always jumped to the top of the document and clicked on my TOC entry to get to the start of whatever chapter I wanted to write or edit. Today, I decided it would be faster to just use Cmd-G, like I would have in MS Word, to jump to a specifc page. I was shocked to discover that that repeated my last search. Is there any way to jump to a specific page without leaving full-screen mode and navigating by the page tumbs? Right now, I tend to rewrite entire chapters, so I have less need to go to specific pages, but that will change later on. Ideally, I'd like to be able to jump from section to section, too.

    Oddly, I never moved the cursor left to see the pages while in fullscreen mode. It's not as fast as a Cmd-[x]-[#] shortcut, but will work for my purposes.
    Thanks

  • In full screen mode (with "Hide Toolbars" selected), is there a way to make FF stop bumping the page up and down everytime I move the mouse to the top of the screen to reveal/hide the toolbar?

    In other words, is there a way to make FF behave like IE9 in full screen mode where the toolbar appears "over" the page rather than pushing the page down?

    Hello,
    Could you please elaborate what exactly you are referring to with "I can't get the link to diplay as a different colour"?
    Regarding your second query, I am afraid it is not possible using Adobe Muse. However it can be a very nice feature request.
    I would suggest you to post this as a feature request on our "Ideas for features in Adobe Muse" section of the forums : http://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas

  • In Lion, Safari pages hang in full screen mode.  If you exit full screen mode, the next page you intended to view appears.

    In Lion, Safari pages hang in full screen mode.  If you exit full screen mode, the next page you intended to view appears.
    This happens nearly every time I use Safari.  I will be clicking on links, when it appears to hang.  By exiting full screen mode, upon minimizing the next page I was intending to view appears.  This does not happen on all websites, but many that I visit.

    Here's a stupid question, but I'm sure I'm not the only one - how exactly DO you minimize the safari fullscreen mode??  I keep reading about orange or yellow tabs which don't exist, at least on my 27 iMac. Control m doesn't work either. I wish Apple would have a basic 3 or 4 page instruction manual on this. Unless there are major bugs still.  By the way, this is only one of many problems I'm having with Safari.  Occasionally the tool bar just dissappears. And, don't get me started about how the dock in Lion simply stopped accepting some icons, including Firefox. None of these problems happened when I first installed Lion. Each upgrade seems to have more bugs, not less.

  • PDF display accurate page size in Full Screen Mode

    Mac G5 Tower Panther OS. When making a PDF presentation to a client (an A4 brochure for example) I would like to use the Full Screen mode using my remote to change pages and make a smooth impression. The problem is on my Apple 20' Cinema display the A4 design fills the screen when I want to show it at 100% size only (210 x 297mm). I can do this easily in Acrobat normal mode but can find no way to make this so with Full Screen mode. The screen resolution is 1680x1050 and I am reluctant to even temporarily change it because it knocks other stuff off kilter.

    I can't find how to do this anymore either.
    It was a GREAT feature.
    And now suddenly, it appears to be removed!  What the heck Apple !!!!

  • Firefox page stop refreshing(drawing) when the flash plugin exit full screen mode.

    While watching youtube video from youtube.com in full screen mode (this is flash player full screen mode, not browser full screen mode), if you exit the full screen mode, some times the original page when the full screen was started from would stop drawing, not responding to the mouse click in the page area. The page will go back to normal if you click and drag the firefox browser title bar or just resize the browser window.
    I initially found this issue with our company's browser plugin product when testing on Firefox 4. Then I went on trying the same scenario with youtube flash player, it is the same behavior.
    It is not difficult to reproduce, if exiting full screen works fine, move the browser window a little bit and try it again. I can reproduce this once every 5 - 10 times. It is very annoying.
    The same test case works on Safari, Google Chrome without any problem. Please fix this!

    Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

  • Full Screen Mode Page Size

    When I set up my PDF to open in Full Screen Mode, it always opens at full screen size. Is there a way to reduce the size of the page to 50% or so? I tried doing so in the settings but whatever I do, it keeps opening up to full screen size.
    Thanks!

    ok I've done I figured out the problem! OK the problem is with the links (jumping from one page to another). OK this is why some pages get smaller. Alright you might have to check all your links on each page, but it will fix the problem. First go to any page now click the links button and all the links should be highlighted now on that page. Next Right click on a link, then go to properties, and here a menu will pop up. The problem lies in here. OK see where it says Zoom level. Make sure it says FIT PAGE or whatever is consistent to your other links. If it doesnt, click edit and change it to FIT PAGE. The reason my page or pages would get smaller is becasue instead of FIT PAGE it said CUSTOM and that made the page smaller. Try it works no joke! Let me know how it comes out?
