Soft returns in Pages for iPad

I would really like to create a space between numbered items in Pages but I can't figure out how to do it. Does anyone know how to create a soft return in Pages for iPad?
I have seen responses for the desktop application but not the iPad application.

Pages 1.7.1, IOS 5.1.1
You start a bullet item and then press both ⇧ and return keypad keys to force a newline. This turns off the bullet style. Press return. Use the paintbrush toolbar icon to reselect the Bullet paragraph style again. This approach shows the inelegant possibility.
The best approach would be at the end of your bullet text, change your line spacing from 1.0 to 1.25 from within the paintbrush > Layout tab. A return continues your bullet style. If your normal body text has been 1.0 line spacing, you can switch back to that after your list.

I guess that we could ask that question about a few different things Apple related.
I'm glad that you got the hang of it.

How can I change the thickness of the cell border of a table in Pages for iPad ?

Hi,
i want to change the thickness of cell borders in tables in Pages for iPad to at least 2pt, better 3pt.
How can I change the thickness in the iOS Version of Pages ?
Thanks

try this ...
In ur table call this
ColorRenderer cell=new ColorRender();
// for(int i=0;i<table.getModel().getColumnCount();i++){
// TableColumn mod=this.getColumn((this.getModel().getColumnName(i)));
mod.setCellRenderer(cell);
And ur ColorRender calss should override DefaultTableCellRenderer like this
class ColorRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {
protected int align;
public ColorRenderer(int align) {
this.align=align;
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row,
int column) {
setHorizontalAlignment(align);
super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected,
hasFocus, row, column);
if(col==4){
setBackground(Color.cyan);
return this;

Where did strikethrough go? unable to find strikethrough button on Pages for ipad in version1.5, HELP!

unable to find strikethrough button S on Pages for ipad in version1.5, HELP!
look! and what's that dot thing?

The following query runs for 10 mins on tbl with 1 mill records on sql server 2012 RTM, and for 1.5 min on sql server 2012 build 3128.
Significant differences in duration are usually due to different plans. As Olaf suggested, comparing the plans is a good first step. Assuming the plans are different, I wouldn't be too quick to assume the difference is related to the software
build. Different plans are often due to differences in the row count estimates used to generate the plan so make sure the same indexes and statistics exist in the databases and that stats are fully up-to-date.
What is the purpose of the WHERE clause? It seems to me it will return all rows anyway.

Logical symbols in pages for IPad? Asking for help

I have a new IPad and I would like to define logical symbols on my keyboard (just like ą, ę and so on). Is there some way to do it and to use it in PAGES for IPad? I would prefer to have few math symbols defined directly under some bottoms and not to use copy/paste. (I tried to find in Pages for IPad some special characters, but there are no such things, perhaps it is possible to add it?) I have also small separated keybord (perhaps this could be somehow used...?)

Afraid you cannot define custom characters for any keyboard in the iPad. What accented characters there are can be shown by holding the appropriate letter down.

How can i make a soft return with pages shift enter does not work!

how can i make a soft return with pages shift plus enter does not work!!

On full keyboards with a numeric keypad, the key above the right shift is "return" & the one on the numeric section is "enter." On a Mac (or Apple IIgs ) they do have separate functions. On the "mini" keyboards, both names are on the same key, but "enter" is written in smaller letters. I'll have to check to see how that works on another Mac later today.

How do you highlight text in Pages for iPad? The document I want to create and highlight is a pages document

I am trying to create a document in Pages for iPad and want to highlight various bits of text but can not find a function in the inspector for this. Can anyone help,please?

Hi stuartdj,
I'm not finding a way to highlight text as one can do with iBooks (hold and swipe for black text, background yellow for example).
One option is to actually color the text itself.
Select the text, then in Style tools, tap the Font name at the top which shows the Text Options sheet where there is a Color option. Would changing the font color to Red, Green or Purple accomplish your goals?
If you do want black text on a colored background (highlighted) it would need to be text in a text box where you can change the fill (background) color. Style, Style Options, Fill. But this is not inline text and doesn't flow like just coloring the font itself.

How do I create a new paragraph Style in Pages for iPad?

I opened an RTF document in iOS 6 Pages for iPad. How do I create new paragraph Syles?

Style is a function of the template applied to the document (and/or the limited number built in to Pages). You can mofify the text or apply one of the built in styles, but I do not beleive within Pages in iOS you can create a new style.

How do I add footnotes/endnotes in Pages for iPad 2?

Hi everyone. Like many people I was super excited to be able to use my iPad 2 as a word processor with the Pages app. I have a macbook black from 2007 and it is extremely heavy to carry around everyone. I'm a graduate student so mobility for me is key. Anyway, so I am writing an academic paper write now in Pages for iOS but I can't figure out how to add footnotes/endnotes to cite my sources. I can't find anything online relating to this topic. Can you tell me how to do this? I certainly hope Pages has this capability because without something so fundamental, how can it be the least bit useful? Thanks so much!

It is not built in, but you can at least create and edit footnotes (I do not use end notes, but from limited testing, it appears to work with endnotes as well but converts them to footnotes). It sounds complicated when you break it down into steps as I do below, but it really is easy and intuitive.
FIRST: The underlying concept. If you have the latest Pages for iPad, then when it imports a Word document it imports footnotes (and endnotes) and you can edit them.
With that in mind, here is how you can create footnotes on the iPad.
#1 In Word create a one short sentence shell text with a short footnote, like "See the cat run /fn1" "fn/1 The cat was black").
#2 Import that shell document into your iPad, say with email "open using Pages."
#3 Save that shell document as your sour dough starter so to speak.
#4 Now create your new Pages iPad document.
#5 When you are ready to create your FIRST new footnote, copy and paste the shell sentence with shell footnote from your saved starter shell document into your new iPages document.
#5. Edit the shell sentence and footnote to a real sentence and footnote in new document.
#6 Thereafter, as you add new footnotes, either copy / paste one from new document or shell and edit. You will see they renumber properly, even when moved.

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Adjust zoom level in Pages for iPad

When I open a new document in Pages for iPad, the zoom level is set to "fit width". I would like to be able to zoom out and see more of the page on the screen at once. How do I adjust the zoom level like you can do in MS Word?
Very specifically asking about the iPad version of the app, I'm sure this is a simple issue to address in the desktop version.
Thank you for your help.
Mark

Other that rotating the iPad to portrait rather than landscape mode (portrait will show you the entire page if the keybaord is closed), not much you can do. There is no setting for this.

Naming a document in pages for iPad OS7

In Pages for iPad when naming document tapping the colon key results in a hyphen instead. Only happens in naming document function. Just letting someone know.

Colons in document names are not allowed because this interferes with the file system. Same on macs.
