Will Pages ever offer a "scrolling" feature? I use Pages to create chord and lyric charts for songs, which often run more than one page. It would be very helpful to have a scrolling feature.

Apologies for the delay.


So what you are looking for is an electronic/mechanical page turner.


I've seen at least one on stage musician using a tablet with a foot pedal attached to hold his music, so I suspect there is such a thing available. Don't know whether his tablet was an iPad or one running on a different OS.


Availability of such an app/device should be from the larger musical instrument dealers in your area. Your closest Apple Store might also be a good place to check.

Did a short search on the web, and came across "AirTurn," a manufacturer of control pedals for electronic instruments and computer software. The site did mention that they also supply holders for tablets (similar in function to a music stand for sheet music), and that their pedals are compatible with iPadOS, MacOS, Android and Windows, and communicate with these machines via bluetooth.


Sounds like they (or another manufacturer/seller of similar equipment could ba a solution for your situation. Here's a link to their home page: https://www.airturn.com
