This is EXACTLY WHAT I MEAN. INCONSISTANCEY!!!!! Pages is Pages is Pages....or at least it should be...and is to me. This is utterly ridiculous. I sold Apple destop publishing systems for 8 years in the '90s and '00s. It's not like I am new to all this...and I am having trouble figuring it out...what they are calling what. It's like iphoto. It's differant on the Mac and iphone and ipad. They are trying to say they have solutions across all platforms, but hey dont.
LOL!!!
Look what you wrote a while ago to me. You said pages can't be indiviually set, in Pages. It's the WHOLE document's pages that get set...and I agree that is the way it should be. Then you say, virtually, you setup the document by going to "File > Page Setup"! LOL!!! WHAT? Am I missing something here? Are these guys that are writing the programs high or something? It should be called "DOCUMENT SETUP" like it is on iOS...and every other page layout program...I think, as I remember that is what it was called in Quark and PM...but that was a while ago.
Anyway, I hope you understand I am not venting on you at all!!!!! It's so frustrating because someone has to change something to make it "theirs" within the software development area or something. THey been watching to much of "The Voice" where the singers change the beat of the song or something and the judges go GA-GA that they "made it your own". Like iPhoto. What is with all the terminology and differant streams and albums, etc.
Enuf...I am going back to creating. I did go to Page Setup to setup a new DOCUMENT in Pages on my Mac and I made it 24 inches long...so we will see what happens.
And one more thing...referring to "sections", as I did, that you were so nice to answer...by sections I meant, sub-headings in a document...or chapters or sub-chapters. I didn't mean "pages". Apple may call pages sections now, but I still am calling them pages.
APPLE stick to computing and leave the English language ALONE and stop trying to re-define everything to make it yours...PLEASE!!!. The english language has wroked fine for centuries....long before you ever even a little egg or - - - - -! (I know I cna't wrirte it because another work was censored out earlier) I better sell my stock while you are ontop. Everyone may end up giving up on you because you have got everything twisted and the piubic will eventually, fire back...they always do! I am in the midst of firing back at Microsoft (just as I did in '95 with you) but finding the alternative challenging...or should I say, frustrating!
Thanks guys...I got my answer:)!!
Phew!
