These responses are so helpful. I’m still experimenting with all the tips to
see what works best for me. But, I”m enjoying Pages much more then I did when
I first tried it many years ago. These tips are great and I look forward to
mastering more of this app.
And, remembering to check the option key alternative menus is going to be
helpful in many apps.
I’m rally enjoying having a little time to focus on using my Mac more
fully.
