Cont. 2022 Pages: Tracking changes within tables

I have found this old thread

Pages: Tracking changes within tables sti… - Apple Community

and now I am facing the same problem.

Although I have also found some tutorials in a Chinese webpage (https://pages.helpnox.com/zh-tw/pages-使用手冊/第-4-章-檢查並修訂文件/追蹤文件中的更動/追蹤表格輸入格中的更動/)

I still can’t get the solution.

Can someone share your experiences? Thank you.

It's June 2022 and Pages v12 on macOS Monterey 12.4 still does not track changes in Pages tables. My original 2016 comment in that link still stands. Only changes to body text are tracked.


You can send the Pages product team feedback about this from the Application menu.

Thank you for replying promptly. It is really a shame for Apple. Am I supposed to tell the employers, “sorry I can’t do that because I choose to use Mac but not PC!” Then waiting to be told to buy MS Office although you want to use Pages!

Do you think there are any reasons for not allowing changes in the table to be tracked?

Most corporations have figured out they need a data policy and have adoped MS Office for requisite document continuity across the organization, customers, and suppliers. If your employer requires you to use MS Office applications, and you decide to use Pages, that is not on Apple, but on you, and could cause you performance review issues for not using MS Office for Mac.


Pages is not a Word clone and attempting to share documents with those that use MS Word as a standard, could eventually bring you measurable regret.
