I have a problem with the tables in Pages. When I make a column which has to be extended on the next page, it does not goes more, just stops and I can't find what is the problem. There is shown a little + at the end of the text and I suppose that the solution is bound to it, but have no idea what I have to do. Can you help me? I made a search on the net and found no answer. May be is a good topic for an article for you. Dear James,

Could you tell me a bit more about it? Like what it is, where to get it and how to use it? You seem to be using some sort of theme in those screenshots.

Could you tell me a bit more about it? Like what it is, where to get it and how to use it?

You can copy and paste objects between iWorks docs but you can not drag and drop them.If you need to drag an object (image, movie, ect) click it and go to Inspector then the Metrics button (little ruler button) and click on the objects ICON to drag it out of the iWork document. I actually discovered this tip here http://twitter.com/marrathon/status/1760251552 (No affiliation but he has some very good daily mac tips!)

My favorite is to use it in combination with Omni Outliner Pro. I make my text while I am planning the presentation in Omni Outliner Pro using inset paragraphs etc. When the text is ready I save the file as a Keynote file, a little known ability. Open that file in Keynote. Keynote asks what theme I want to use and voila! the slides are all ready. Then it's only a question of setting pictures in, transitions etc. I use Keynote the most of the iWorks suite. My favorite is to use it in combination with Omni Outliner Pro.

But as you said, you CAN drag & drop from the desktop.

I too was desperate for a solution to Word. Pages is such a powerful program - I've gotten to the point where I don't even worry about photoshop for much of my quick graphic work. Option click - great tip. Cheers Excellent.

I can drag and drop images from folders and applications into any iWork '09 document just fine (including, Photoshop, Illustrator, and PDFs.) What seems to be the problem officer? :) I’m not sure if I’m reading the M.I.A. section correctly or not.
