Top Margin Woes: Setting the "Before" Margin for Every Page in a Section

Hi,
I've scoured the forums to no avail on this one. I am trying to create a document where the text in Section 1 appears 1 inch from the top of each page and 2 inches from the top of each page in Section 2. Should be pretty straightforward, right? Please tell me it is! I'm using Pages '09 (version 4.0.5).
Right now, the document margin is set to 1 inch from the Top, so Section 1 is fine. For Section 2, when setting the Before margins after a Layout Break (in the Layout Inspector under the Layout tab), only the first page of that section gets a Before margin of 2 inches. Every page after that in Section 2 is still 1 inch from the top.
Suggested Workaround Attempted
I tried the "Move Object to Section Master" workaround, but the menu item "Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master" is disabled when performed on an "inline" object, which is what is required to force the text down from the top of each page in Section 2. Turning it into a "floating" object enables the "Move Object to Section Master" menu item, but since it is floating. the text for that section is not pushed down, the rectangle is just displayed in the background of each page in Section 2.
Any ideas on how to solve my Top margin woes would be much appreciated!

Hello
To push a text down in the text body using the clean way which means setting space after, requires that we have already a paragraph which means a chunk of text ended by a paragraph break.
It's exactly what I do.
Most of the time, we don't put a paragraph break at the end of a header so it's not a paragraph and so, we can't define the space after value.
My tip just gives it the status of paragraph allowing me to define space after the clean way. The dirty one was to insert several returns to adjust the height which I carefully rejected.
It's exactly what we discovered some months ago:
we can't set space before (above) at top of a page because there is no paragraph before (above) in the page.
As far as I know, the  "Use Previous Headers and Footers" must always be set correctly. I'm remembering a thread which became huge because the OP can't understand that he had to define these properties correctly to get correct results with his captured pages.
I wish to add that at this time we don't know exactly what the OP want to achieve.
Maybe he want to move down the top of the print area and the header.
You can't do that with your tip.
With mine, I just insert a paragraph break at the beginning of the header.

  • Can you set the print margins in Preview?

    I can set margins in other programs (like Photoshop, Word, Excel, Firefox, Chrome...), but there does not seem to be a setting for margins when printing from Preview. I don't want to resize the image, just get it to print in a certain position on the paper (template form).
    In the case of Photoshop, you are placing an image on a canvas and can position the image to suit. Word and Excel have a Page Setup menu that lets you set the margin positions - which know since you have got the output you wanted. There is no Page Setup menu for most, if not all, Apple applications like Preview. Instead parts of the Page Setup menu have been added to the print dialog but margins is not one of them.

    Understood. Unfortunately you don't get that option in Preview. The image will be centred - both horizontal and vertical - based on the paper size and the printer you have selected in the print dialog. You could create a custom paper size with the margins you want to position the image and then use that custom paper in Preview. But your workaround of using Word gives you more control over the positioning of the image.

    Hi
    i'm looking for a new router to replace my HH2 for the main reason of setting my own noise margin i dont want something to pricey so i came across the NetGear DGN1000 it's got pretty decent specs but does it allow me to set my own noise margin ?? also do you recommened this router ??

    The DGN1000 doesn't have a Broadcom chipset so I don't think you can set the noise margin. The DGN2000 is a better router.

    Anyone got any ideas how to get around this terrible downgrade of the software ?
    BTW I have just discovered that iPhoto and its' libraries are still there, so I can go back but be left behind and frozen in time on this version if I do.
    Photos now take up 700Gb whereas it was 350Gb  #@!$#@!@#!@#
    Thanks

    That are all good points - but Photos is a completely new application. and it is only version 1.
    Continue to use iPhoto, girraween; the next update to Photos will probably add a few more features.
    iPhoto 9.6.1 is working very well with MacOS X 10.10.3.
    The migration let iPhoto installed and also your iPhoto Library will still work with iPhoto.
    If you did not uninstall iPhoto, it will still be there in your Applications folder.  And if you had updated to the latest version iPhoto 9.6.1 before you upgraded to MacOS X 10.10.3,  you can simply drag iPhoto back to the Dock from your Applications folder and continue to use it. Double click iPhoto and confirm, that you want to open iPhoto and not Photos.   It is not compulsory to use Photos, while it it still the first release. When you launch iPhoto, you will see a warning, that the iPhoto Library has been migrated to Photos, but simply click the "Open iPhoto" button.The library will still work with iPhoto. ()see: If Photos won't open a library that you already migrated - Apple Support
    If your iPhoto version is not iPhoto 9.6.1, you need to update it.
    See this User Tip:
    Usually it will work to reinstall instead of updating:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
    Meanwhile you may want to send a feature request to Apple using the feedback form. Apple - Photos - Feedback
    I hope, Apple will listen and add more features to Photos to make it usable for large Photo Libraries.

  • How do I set the default time for calendar alerts?

    How do I set the default time for calendar alerts? I always want to have an alert 15 minutes before my appointments. I don't want to have to manually set it each time I make an appointment (I just moved to iphone from a windows mobile where this was basic stuff so I apologise if this is a noob question).

    I have the same issue. I've searched these forums and found lots of people who have asked this same question, but nobody who has received an answer.
    About a year ago, I migrated from a Windows PC and a Blackberry (both of which had very simple default alert options) to a MacBook Pro and an iPhone and have yet to find a solution on this forum or from any of my Apple-savvy friends. Very discouraging.

  • SRM 4.0- How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC

    The radio button “Service” should not be visible.
    Also for search help (e.g. search for internal products) where a search should only be possible for product type 01 (goods). The system should not display the product type and internally always search for goods only.
    How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC
    We needs to use Search help BBPH_PRODUCT which having parameter PRODUCT_TYPE
    Here we can set defalut value 01 but it is not correct one since same search help is using several places.
    We need to limit the search help results only for SC.
    Kindly help out me ASAP.

    The easiest way to set defautl values is to edit the batch class.
    Goto the characteiristic and go to update values.
    In here you probably have something like 0 - 100 as a spec range.
    On the next line enter the default value within this range.  At the end of the line, click in the box in the column labelled "D".  This indicates the defautl value for the characteristic.
    If you need to you can do this in the material classification view as well.
    Just to be clear, these values will only show up in the batch record.  You can not have defautl values in resutls recording screens.

  • How can i set the alternating colors for a table rows

    Dear All,
    Please any one help me how can i set the Alternating colors for Table Rows.
    i created a theam there i set the background alternating color to brown and i set the table design properity to alternating. but it is not reflecting.

    Hi,
    The design property in Table properties should work for your requirement. Select "alternating" value for design.
    Please see the API below:
    design
    Determines the appearance of the table. The property design can take the following values and is represented by enumeration type WDTableDesign.
    alternating - The table rows are displayed alternately in a different color.
    standard - The table background has one color. The individual table rows are displayed with grid net lines.
    transparent - The table background is transparent. The individual table rows are displayed without grid net lines.
    Check whether you have changed the right property or not? Also table should contain more than one rows to test this scenario.
    Regards,
    Jaya.

  • How do I set the delivery policy for a queue in iMQ 2.0?

    The list on page 67 of the 2.0 administration guide appears to be
    incomplete. Specifically, I'm interested in knowing how to set
    the default delivery policy for a Queue through the jmqobjmgr command.
    I need the valid attribute name to pass in to jmqobjmgr.

    The "queueDeliveryPolicy" is an attribute of a queue
    created in the broker - not in the administered object
    destination so that is why you are not seeing that
    attribute on the list on page 67.
    By default, the broker by will use the "single" queue delivery
    policy unless you choose to change the values of the property
    "jmq.queue.defaultdeliveryPolicy" to SINGLE, ROUND-ROBIN, or
    FAILOVER. If you would like to do this, see the Chapter 4
    in the admin guide on "Starting and Configuring the Broker".
    It may be easier to set the delivery policy for just one queue.
    To do this, you can use the following command:
    jmqcmd create dst -n myQueue -t q -o "queueDeliveryPolicy=f"
    where valid values to queueDeliveryPolicy is f, s, r.
    You can do a 'jmqcmd -H' to get more info on queue attributes or
    see Chapter 6 in the admin guide on "Creating and Destroying Destinations".

  • How do I set the aspect ration for 4:3  or for 16:9?

    How do I set the aspect ration for 4:3  or for 16:9 in Adobe PE12?

    PulcinellaNM
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? Have you updated from 12 to 12.1 Update via a project's Help Menu/Update? If not, please do so. That is all background information for now.
    As for the question that you are posting....
    I think we need to go a lot deeper into what you are doing. Here are some considerations
    The aspect ratio setting is in the import settings. In Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace, the project automatically sets the project preset based on the properties of the first video file that you drag to the Expert workspace Timeline. If your video's properties include a 16:9 flag, then the project settings will have a 16:9 flag (aspect ratio). If you do not want the project to set the project settings automatically, you can set the project settings yourself manually with File Menu/New/Project and then import your source video.
    If a problem exists where imported 16:9 video is presenting in Premiere Elements as 4:3 instead of 16:9 (typical of the JVC .mod file issue), then you can set the pixel aspect ratio under Interpret Footage feature inside the project workspace.
    At this point, I think it best for you to give more details and background behind your question so that we can be sure that we are giving you the information that you need to succeed in your projects.
    If you need clarification on anything written, please do not hesitate to ask for clarification.
    Thank you.

  • How to set the AS2 fileName for outbound Functional Ack 997 auto generated by Oracle B2B

    Hi Friends,
    How to set the AS2 fileName for outbound Functional Ack 997 auto generated by Oracle B2B.
    External Trading Partner is sending the EDI 856 via AS2 URL to our Oracle B2B Server.
    In the inbound 856 agreement, we have checked the option of Funtional Ack and also Functiona Ack handled by B2B is yes.
    We have the outbound agreement which is sending that Functional ack 997 (auto generated by oracle b2b) and we have specified the Outbound AS2 channel of the Partner.
    997 doc is being sent to external partner using AS2 channel, but the filename is generating as '40101'.
    Please can you let me know how to set the AS2 fileName for outbound Functional Ack 997 auto generated by Oracle B2B.
    Appreciate your valuable answers!!
    Thanks,

    Amirineni,
    AFAIK, there is no option to set the file name when the 997 is generated automatically by B2B.
    Alternatively, if this is a must requirement, you can generate the FA from backend and  send to B2B with MSG_TYPE =9. In this case, you can set the header with filename (How to set the actionname property in B2B 11g)
