Pages equivalent for AppleWorks "Fill Down" in spreadsheets

Hi there,
In the past I've been using an AppleWorks spreadsheet to keep track of my banking. I have a balance column that uses the "Fill Down" function from the "Calculate" menu in AppleWorks. I can't seem to find similar functionality in Pages tables. Anyone out there know how to do this in Pages?
Thanks!

It is unreasonable to expect Pages to do everything AppleWorks does. Pages is only a word processing & page layout application &, along with Keynote for presentations, an application in iWork. It is not a spreadsheet or a database. It doesn't really have draw features to the extent AppleWorks does nor does it have any paint functions. If/when iWork gets applications for those functions, my expectation is that they won't be in Pages, but separate applications, just as Keynote is a separate application.

Does pages have an equivalent for Word's option of viewing a document in "online layout"?

Does pages have an equivalent for Word's option of viewing a document in "online layout"?

With online layout you can have the page of your document fill up as much of the screen as you want while being able to zoom the viewing of your text or words to any percentage you want. In pages, I can zoom or stretch the document to fit the full width of the screen, but the view the actual text or words themselves correspondingly enlarges as well.

If I am browsing on site such as Ebay or any shopping site, and click on an item, when I return to the search page I am once again at the top of the page and have to search down for where I was in the list of items.

If I am browsing on site such as Ebay or any shopping site and click on an item, when I return to the search page I am once again at the top of the page and have to search down for where I was in the list of items. This is not only on Ebay it is everywhere I search. Firefox goes back to the top of the page . It is annoying to have to figure out exactly where I was if I left the page and then returned. This is a hinderance when using Firefox. I have considered uninstalling it because of the inconvenience of 're-searching' after already doing a search. Firefox used to take me right back to where I was if I left a page, but that feature is not working now. I am not sure how to change this in the settings.

Creating a template in Pages is straight-forward as answered here previously. Is there and equivalent for iBooks Author which can start with a blank page and build up the template as required? or can one only adapt a ready made template?

This has proved unsatisfactory to me so far. Lines are left in etc.

There are two basic menus for fonts - one from the main menu bar and one from the toolbar. You can also bring up the font manage dialog.
I don't recommend trying to hard to force an otherwise foreign font, as it inevitably needs to be usable/supported on iOS as well, and that can get tricky w/3rd party fonts, as an example, even with the expanded font support in the latest iBA.
If you need to discuss fonts more, I suggest starting a new thread....preferably with a slightly more brief title, thanks.

Fill-down function not working for resources.

Hi,
I am running P6 version 8.2 and I am trying to use the 'fill-down' function to copy resources down for certain filtered activities but the option is always greyed out.
I can fill down just about anything else but for some reason it doesn't work with resources.
Can anyone fill me in on why this may be..?
Thanks.
Russell.

You can't use fill down on any column that is a list. Predecessors, Successors, Resources, Roles and Activity Codes can all be assigned to multiple activities by highlighting them, right clicking and going to Assign. This will bring up a window where you can choose what to assign.
I am not 100% sure on why you can't use fill down with resources but I imagine its because you are doing more than editing a value for each activity. You are linking an activity to a resource, each of which are objects in the database.

When I open the "Save Page As" window, the drop-down box for the file name shows files that were saved long ago. This is not cleared by any "clear history" function that I can find. How do I clear this?

Hello.
I believe this is a Windows related issue, since it's the windows Save File manager we're talking about here (right?). You should contact Microsoft for help on that one, I believe. You'd expect to be able to delete the entries by simply tapping ''Delete'' on your keyboard when they are focused (that's how it goes for deleting specific form autocomplete entries in Firefox), but I haven't tried that.
I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

VM2.2 manager page shows wrong status "Shutting down" for VM Guest

Hi,
VM manager page shows wrong status "Shutting down" for VM guest, I can very much connect to console and see it is up and running.
It happened when trying to shutdown VM guest manually but in parallel VM server got rebooted automatically.
Any information on How to correct the status in VM manager page?
Thank you.

I found below this solution on http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15441/appendix_e.htm#BHBCIAJB
To solve this problem, change the status manually as follows:
1.Make sure that the virtual machine in the target server has been shut down. Use xm list or virsh list to check the virtual machine name and ID.
2.If the virtual machine is running, use xm shutdown vm_id or virsh shutdown vm_id to shut it down, where vm_id refers to the virtual machine name or ID.
3.Use xm list or virsh list to check if the virtual machine has been shut down. If it is still running, use xm destroy vm_id, or virsh destroy vm_id to shut it down.
4.Log in as oracle (or root first, then su - oracle) to the computer where Oracle VM Manager is installed, and run the following commands to change the virtual machine status to Powered off in the Oracle XE database:
export ORACLE_HOME='/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server'
export ORACLE_SID=XE
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> update ovs.ovs_vm_img t set t.status='Powered Off' where t.img_name like 'vm_name';
SQL> commit;
SQL> quit
vm_name refers to the virtual machine name.
5.Retry your operation, or delete the virtual machine directly.

Replacement for Appleworks Clippings

Does Pages have a replacement for Appleworks Clippings? If so, where do I find it? And better still, does it have an equivalent to Word's AutoText feature, with drop-down picklists?
Cheers, Simon

You might look into EazyDraw.
It's reported able to open AppleWorks Draw documents, and the "Draw" name would indicate it handles vector drawings.
That would save at least one step in the process.

What is the correct Page Width for Mobile Device???

Hi All
Just have a question that "What is the correct Page Width for Mobile Device???"
Is the Default 380px width is right? or 320px?
Because the average smartphone is having resolution is 320X480 pixels...
also in this video http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/adobe-muse-designing-for-mobile-devices/ Dani Beaumont created the Mobile version website in 320px width (If you watch the video carefully you can notice the page width is 320px)
And if the default page width 380px taken, will it be displayed correctly on every smart phone (average & high end)?
please reply if you have any suggestions

HI. I have designed a mobile web site that is currently 450pixels wide. This is the first one I have done. When it displays on some mobile phones, the width of the entire page is scaled down and it only fills about 1/2 of the width of the mobile phone with a whole pile of mrgin to the right. Is this because I should have designed it to be 380 pixes wide or have I done something else wrong. The test site is at:

Please help me if you can. Thank you.

Pages counterpart for PC

I own a PC and am looking for a pages counterpart for school. I'm looking for the best counterpart for PC. Is there any? And if so, what are they?

For DTP use Serif PagePlus.
The only equivalent that combines DTP, WP, Spreadsheets, Charts, Drawing etc is Word but with less polish than Pages.

Fill Down Question

I understand how to use "Fill down" when all fields are on the same row.
A1-B1, D1-E1 etc.
But When there is a constant as in the formula A1-A4, A1-A5, A1-A6 etc How do I get the fill down to work without changing the A1. (I surely would not like to have to manually enter the formula for over 200 lines)
Thanks
-Sandy

Yes, That did the trick.
Thank you very much.
Sandy
+Now my hope is Appleworks is sold to a third party developer sometime soon.+
+I still use it for the shell of my websites (saving WP in HTML) & quick little easy graphics using draw and paint.+

How to get ALL values as default for a drop down box in JSF

Hi,
I have a drop down box in JSF page which retrieves values from LOVCache.java. I have values like Company, Client, User, ALL in the drop down box.
By default blank value is selected for the drop down box. I want to make ALL(which retrieves data for all the values) as default value for the drop down box.
Could any body help me? Any help must be appreciated.
Thanks,
Aseet

Thanks Nikhil. But I am fetching the values from the LOVCache.java.
I am using <af:selectManyChoice>. Is there any way I can use LOVCache.java value for selecting default values instead of hard coding?
I mean to say can I write
unselectedLabel="#{LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList.anyValue}"
where LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList is used to populate the drop down box.
Regards,
Aseet

How can i get a comedy, Dutch Treat or/and its companion Detective School Dropouts released in 1987 be included in the iTunes US store for me to down load. i will pay any thing to download them.

I wish to request that a comedy, Dutch Treat or/and its companion Detective School Dropouts released in 1987 be included in the iTunes US store for me to down load. i will pay any thing to download them.

You can try requesting it via this page (these are user-to-user forums) : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
But unless the the US rights-holder passes it to Apple and allows them to sell it in the US then Apple won't be able to sell it there
