Tables in Pages for iOS help

Hello all hope you're well. It's the first time i am using pages for iOS and i have searched the internet for some help but cannot find mt answer i was hoping you guys might know how to help me. When i create a table and it runs onto the next page, the writing in the main header title carries onto the next page but i do not want it too i just want the table to carry on. As you can see below i do not want the date in the grey bar to show up. Is there a way i can rectify this?
Thank you
Take care

Unfortunately your screen shot image does not display. Not 100% sure what your issue is, but I'll take a shot:
If you wish to prevent the header from appearing on any subsequent pages that the table spans, you will actually need to remove the header and use the first row for that purpose:
Tap on the table to select it
Tap the format tool icon (paint brush)
Tap Headers
Tap the minus sign ( - ) beside Header Rows.
Reformat background color or other style characteristics for the first row if needed.

Pages for iOS on iPad - is it possible to add a dot leader tab?

Hi All,
I appreciate any help and thank you in advance...and apologize if this is a poor question, but searching around hasn't yielded any help.
Is it possible in Pages for iOS to add a dot leader tab?
I.e. Chapter One .......................................... 3.
I suspect not, but welcome any help.
Thanks!

Correct that you cannot create this in ios Pages, but if you have a document or document template that was created on the Mac, then ios Pages will still have that function attached to that particular tab. Whacky huh.
With only a dozen or so features, I personally don't see that ios or icloud Pages is very useful, but I guess it is still in beta with more features to come.

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;

Creating automatic sequential lists in Pages for iOS

Maybe I'm crazy, but I am having difficulties with creating lists that work in Pages for iOS.
I am a teacher, and I have been trying to use my iPad in the classroom more. I have been trying to make simple multiple-choice review quizzes using Pages.
It seems that when I create a new list, the numbering works fine. 1, 2, 3,... No problems. When I try to add an indent with A, B, C,...etc., the number I had completely reverts to the 1. It doesn't continue to keep the sequence. And I have no control over what number comes next like on the desktop version. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?
Thanks.

Tables in Pages are actually spreadsheets and would appear to be your best choice.
To create a sequence of numbers input two, one after the other in adjacent cells, select both and pull down the small white dot in the bottom right corner of the selection. This will generate a continuing sequence. It is quite clever and works for all sorts of number patterns, days of the week, months, years etc.
The spreadsheet can calculate your VAT etc.
If you don't want them in a spreadsheet you can export them as text.

How to change name of document in Pages for iOS?

I'm having problems with changing the name of documents in Pages for iOS.
Any answers? I dont want all my documents to be Blank, Blank 2, and so on!!

Hi Horace
You should hopefully just need to tap on the name of the document when you open Pages.
When you open the app, you should see all of your documents displayed. Under each one is the name of the document. Tap on the name and that one document should zoom to the centre of the screen and you can edit the name. If the document was previously called "blank" then the name field will appear empty, allowing you to type in the name you want. If it already had a name, then that name will be displayed there.
Tapping on edit allows you to make copies of a document or delete things rather than renaming them.
Hope this helps.

How do I add video to a Pages for iOS document?

I thought that with the latest updates to Pages that there would be 1:1 parity between the MacOS X and iOS versions of Pages. However, I am unable to figure out how to add video to Pages in iOS as I can easily do in Pages for MacOS X (just drag & drop). What is the secret to including video into a Pages for iOS document? Or is this just not possible? I don't see how audio can be added either. It seems to be Photos only from the + icon.

The video should be in your camera roll, tap the +, then the music note and choose your video.

Bug: pressing backspace to delete a word in Pages for iOS automatically deletes space before word

Hi guys,
When I delete a word in Pages for iOS 7 character-by-character, the deletion automatically includes the space before the word, even if I don't initiate a keypress for that space. This is sporadic in that it consistently occurs in some sections of text (usually at the end of lines) and not in others, in paragraphs with custom Styles and in paragraphs with default Styles alike.
If the bug happened consistently, I could probably by habit overcome this extra deletion. However, since it does not happen in every circumstance, it's unpredictable and as such very disruptive to my workflow.
This occurs in new documents with no formatting. I've also tried Resetting All Settings, restoring the app through the Settings menu, and deleting and re-downloading the app from the App Store. It occurs both when I use my Bluetooth wireless keyboard (Logitech) and when I use the iPad Mini's OS keyboard.
I really don't want to restore my entire iPad just to fix this problem, as I think it's an app-based bug (the problem does not happen at all in any other text app).
This Pages version is 1.7.2, and I'm using iOS 7.0.2 on an iPad Mini WiFi only.
Could anyone with a similar setup try this out? I can't be the only one...right?

I am experiencing this as well. In another thread (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5374836) it appears someone contacted support about it and was told this is expected behavior.
For me, this will cause me to stop using Pages. It's extremely aggravating.

How to put pictures inside the table in Pages for IPad?

How can I put pictures inside the table in Pages for IPad? I can do that in Pages in my macbook, but I can't in IPad.

It would appear that unless you are working from a document that already had section breaks (or the equivilent) ,you can't. I have some files in pages that began as MS Word documents with multiple sections that allow that by tapping on the footer (or header) and making the change. Files created in Pages (or from other sources but without section beaks) do not.

How do I change the paragraph spacing before and after paragraphs in Pages for iOS

Being experienced in writing technical documents, I would like to know if there is any way I can setup paragraph styles with a specific spacing before and/or after paragraphs in Pages for iOS. You can do this in the normal Pages for Mac OS. Setting line spacing in Pages for iOS is not a very accurate way of formatting a document so that it looks good on a page.

Hello James
I have realised this, but this is a long winded way of doing things and inconvenient if you want to create a new document using an iPad. To me paragraph spacing is one of the essentials when creating documents. It makes a document more readable and look more professional. For Apple to miss this out of iOS Pages is a huge error. Pages should be similar across all platforms where you can use Pages which will greatly overall compatibility, especially if you are exporting to other formats.

Spell checker in Pages for iOS - other than english

Hello,
I'm trying to get spell checking in Pages for iOS working in another language besides english. My question is- is spell checker in Pages for iOS evailable in any other language besides english? Because it doesn't seem to be- once I change keyboard to another language (even matching system language), Pages stops underlying errors in that keyboard language.
Thanks.

Spellcheck/autocorrect follows the keyboard (system language is irrelevant). Please tell us what language exactly is not working for you.

Pages for iOS doesn't show the preview view of documents, a fix?

I don't know if anyone has the same problem, but since the update, my pages for iOS (even in iPhone or iPad), doesn't show the preview view of each document. I have to open a document, close it and then it appears the preview. But if I close the app, all the previews disappear again and it shows the icon of pages (the orange pencil), which is awful by the way.
So, anyone else has this problem? How can I fix it? It is not a big deal, I know, but I just don't like the way it looks like.
I re-install the app and it doesn't work.
Thanks!

Same problem here. Some previews but majority are the icon diagram of the orange pen. It's the same on both my iPhone 5 and iPad 3. Hope they sort this ASAP

Pages for iOS merging documents

Using Pages for iOS, is it possible to merge two separate, one page documents into one, two page document? Simply copying and pasting isn't working out as the 2 pages have different background images and formats all together. I am making a flyer and the front and back are very different.

hi Kaylon,
You've posted in the comunity for Numbers (Mac).
On the Mac, open both documents. Pick one as the final.
In the other document, click on the page icon for the page you want to add to the final. Copy.
Swith to the 'final' document,
Click in the space below 'page 1' in the Pages list to the left. Paste.
Done.
Regards,
Barry
As the answer for Pages for iOS is likely similar, but differing in detail, I've requested this dicussion be transfered to the iWork for iOS community.

Pages for iOS converts movies to images on ePub export

It appears that Pages for iOS is able to use the Apple-supplied template for ePub export that was originally developed for Pages in the iWork '09 suite. However, when I add video to a document and then export to ePub, Pages for iOS issues this message in the Export Details:
Some changes were made to your exported documnet.
Movies were converted to images.
The movies play fine in Pages for iOS, they just don't get exported when ePub is chosen despite the fact that iBooks for iOS will handle video embedded in ePub perfectly well.
Since Pages for MacOS X exports to ePub without converting movies to images, this appears to be a major parity issue. Apple has gone to some lengths to reach parity between MacOS X, iOS and iCloud with respect to iWork and iLife app suites and has gotten considerable heat over those efforts, I have to wonder whether I've missed something in coming to this sad conclusion. Have I?

It sounds as if your caption is beneath the object to which it's referencing. If so, you can either do one of two things. The first thing (and doesn't require any XHTML knowledge) is to place the caption above the image (a bit unconventional in comparision to dead-tree printing). This will cause the e-reader to begin the page with the caption (the linked item) and thus contain the object of reference below, ensuring it's on the same page for viewing.
Another option, and a more elegant solution (but more technical), is to open the EPUB file with an app like BBEdit or TextMate. Both of these apps can open an EPUB file without having to unzip the file. With the file open, navigate to the file in which you want to make your edit (which will be located in the OEBPS folder). Run a Regex search for your caption title (regex \bcaption\b) and ensure you've found the correct location. Locate your <a id="caption" /> destination anchor. The code just above this anchor should be your image. Remove this code above the image with a p class, like so: <p class="caption"><a id="caption1" /> </p>. This effectively forces the ereader to display the object of reference.
