then normally in the past you (or rather, I) would hit Command-U and start typing and get underlined text.īut what happens instead is that when you hit Command-U it selects the paragraph symbol such that if you start typing immediately you simply replace the paragraph symbol with whatever you type. Let's say you've decided you want to create a new underlined heading for the second paragraph. Put the cursor somewhere in the middle of the document, between two paragraphs. Take a text document you've already written. See if you can replicate it with these steps. You said you'd like to look over someone's shoulder. Maybe it has something to do with Pages on the web, or the connection to iOS or something. I think this is just a bug in the way the latest Pages works. As I tried it, that doesn't solve my problem. It does this in Pages '09 v4.3 and Pages v5.6.1 on El Capitan 10.11.3.Īlright, thanks. However, if the sentence ends with a double-quote, period, and a paragraph break, this keyboard sequence will select the ending quote, period, paragraph mark, and the first word of the next paragraph - which is one word too far. Each time you click the right-arrow, another word is selected to the right. This works the same way in Pages '09 v4.3 as it does in Pages v5.6.1 - at least for me.Īnother tactic for text selection is to place your insertion point ahead of the text that you want to add a text attribute too, and then press option+shift+right-arrow. Even when I triple-click a sentence, and the trailing paragraph mark is selected, I can switch to command+B and bold the whole line without issue. I wish I could look over the shoulder of those that are having issues with this feature, as I cannot replicate it here. This worked fine after I typed two hard returns. As a test, I turned off the After paragraph setting, and pressed one hard return, issued a command+B, and proceeded to type in bold. I use an After paragraph setting to avoid pressing more than one hard return after a paragraph. In any release of Pages v5, or in Pages '09 v4.3. WIth Show Invisibles enabled, there are no hidden paragraph symbols.
