Simple button action that goes to a page within the same doc

I can't figure this out. I have a button I want to use that takes a person back to the first, or second page of the same doc. It's a catalog section with a table of contents. I need to make links for the pdf that takes people to certain pages within the same document.
In the Buttons panel, I see how to make the button, but when I assign an action, the only choice that makes sense is "Go To Destination", but I don't get or see any way to choose "page 2" of the document, or another selection method.
I did this before a few years ago on hundreds of pages, and when I open those old documents up to copy/paste the same buttons, they don't even appear to have actions on them anymore, as if it never happened.
So, what's the secret? Certainly there's a way to link to another page in the same ID file, no?

Finally figured it out. I do NOT use the button panel at all. No buttons needed. Just select the grouped object that I want for my button, and hit the "add hyperlink" button in the Hyperlink panel. Then choose "Page" from the menu that opens up and be on my way. What was throwing me for a bad loop, was that I had copied and pasted the button graphic form another document. Well, since the link made previously was broken now, I had the red flag in the Hyperlinks panel...and thus, the "new hyperlink" button was greyed out, sending me in circles. The minute I deleted the old hyperlink it carried over from the old document, the new hyperlink button worked again and all was well.
Thanks.

    Hi,
    You can't use family sharing or multiple Apple IDs with iTunes match.
    ITunes match is only attached to Apple id that you used to subscribe.

  • How to merge pages within the same document?

    Can I merge pages within the same pdf document? I have two large maps, an east and west, can I put the two pages together to make one map?

    How different are the layouts?
    You can vary the left and right pages:
    +Inspector > Layout > Section > Configuration > Left and right pages are different+
    But the position of the headers, footers and margins will be the same.
    You could make different designs and capture those but each would have to be its own section. This sort of thing works better in Layout mode, where every page is a different section, but you won't get automatic text flow nor TOC, footnotes etc.
    Pages rapidly gets very clumsy when you try to do detail layout to this extent.

  • How can I turn a phrase into a hyperlink to a page within the same iBook?

    I tried the link inspector in all ways I could see, but could not find a way to make a phrase a link to another page or heading within the same book in iBook Author (which is very easy in HTML).

  • Symbol Buttons that will open a page in the same Tab using hyperlinks

    Hi there,
    I was just wondering how do you put the specific code into a
    button symbol
    to open a page like google or something in the same TAB or
    page.
    My following code is From Flash CS3 Action Script 3 From a
    button symbol and i would like to make it open in the same page not
    a new TAB.
    The following code opens a page in new TAB which i did not
    want.
    I just need the page to open in the current page.
    THANKS

    Hi BalusC;
    Would you please help me to understand what does it mean (from the browser perspective) "return false;" at the end of the 'Onclcik' event? It blocks the element's default action. In for example a link or a button the actual link href won't be opened and the button's form submit won't be invoked.
    And why sometimes I see the word "return " BEFORE the JS function call : (example onclick="confirm(...)" AND onclcik="return confirm(.....)" ).It is just returning the outcome of the function. The confirm() function can either return true or false. This is easier and cleaner than getting it in a boolean variable and returning the variable.

    Use scriptListener to create the code for adjusting the hue.  find the line in the code that denotes the change in hue replace that value with a variable that stores a random number:
    var rangeForRandomNumber = 200
    var offsetForRandomNumber = -100
    var randomNumber = Math.random() * rangeForRandomNumber + offsetForRandomNumber

  • Linking to a specific page within the same PDF

    Hello There!
    I have one PDF document that is organized like this:
    Page 1-10  Main Information
    Page 11-12  Appendix 1
    Page 13-15  Appendix 2
    I need direct links to Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 from a HTML page.   For example, when the user clicks (within my HTML page) on Appendix 1, the PDF opens and automatically goes to Page 11. 
    I know in HTML I would use an anchor tag but that does not seem to be an option here. 
    Any advice on this?
    Thank you for your help!

  • How to fill an 8x10 page with the same image for making buttons?

    How do you make a button template using the grid?  How do you import the image onto that, and how do you fill an entire page with the same image ie-  1" circles

    I'm trying to do the same thing but I want 1" squares.  I just upgraded from Elements 6 and I did this
    quite often for pendant necklaces.  I used to go and print individual prints, but the previous options are not there.  ;(
    And the picture package is only showing 20 (2x2) as being the smallest size.  I don't see a custom button.
    Can anyone tell me how to do this?  We're doing these for a fundraiser and I can't even print anymore.
    Thanks,

    That would be software. And, you said "upload." That's "uploading software." Why do you question what you stated?
    I don't know where you even want to upload this software. The only way it can be downloaded to a device is through the iTunes store. Do you even know what you want to do?
