OK, I added you to Skype. I may need you over Skype to talk me through
this, as it's not working over here. Everything worked, up until I selected
the line of text that I wanted to reformat for heading level 1. Once
selected, I hit F1, as you said. Yes, my keys are set up as software by
default, so I don't need to hit the fn key along with it. I already know
about that small gotcha. After doing this, it doesn't appear to have
worked. It's telling me that the line is bold faced, which I do not recall
doing. I thought maybe that meant it worked, but then I looked down under
that line of text only to find that the rest of the file is also bold faced.
That's definitely! not what I told it to do. I can't send you this file to
look at unfortunately, as it is a private document, but yeah... I may get
you later on if you're up to it, to try helping me over Skype figure out why
this isn't working.
Also, if anyone else may beat you to it, and can help me over Skype with
this, I'd appreciate it. My Skype name is:
twinklesfriend2007
Any of you all are welcome to add me. James, I did add you, so hope that
was ok. Don't worry, I did mention in my add request window specifically
who I am as you requested. I do that though anyway, just out of common
curticy.
Thank you kindly,
Christopher-Mark Gilland.

Subject: Re: Two Questions about Pages
Hi Chris,
Pages is a brilliant app isn't it?
1. In Pages, how do I format a line of text as a heading level 1, 2, 3,
etc.
This is a little keyboard-intensive, but the steps to do this are as
follows:
1. Once you've got your text, press Command+Shift+T. This opens the styles
drawer.
2. Press VO+Shift+up arrow until you hear "stop interacting with scroll
area"
3. Navigate with VO+left arrow once until you hear "drawer. Interact with
the drawer with VO+Shift+Down Arrow
4. Navigate down with VO until you hear "paragraph styles". Interact
with this.
5. You can then use VO+Down Arrow until you come to "Heading 1"
6. Root the mouse pointer to this with VO+Command+F5.
7. Press VO+Space and go down the menu to "Hot key".
8. You can then select one of the "f" keys as your shortcut for the
heading.
9. Once you've navigated back to and interacted with the "body" of the
document, find the text you want to make a heading level 1 and press F1.
2. I have a list of items which I put one item per line. Now, I want to
select that whole chunk of text, which I've done, but now, what do I need
to do in order to make that into a bulleted list?
Here you go:
1. Bring up the Inspector with Command+Option+I.
2. Navigate to the "Text" tab and activate it with VO+Space.
3. Then navigate to the "list" option and activate this.
4. You'll find a pop-up menu here for bulleted lists. Select the one you
want and you're god to go.
Bare in mind though, that VO will not recognise that the text is in a
list. One of Apple's missed and necessary accessibility improvements for
Pages.
Feel free to contact me if I can help further. My Skype is saulky1984, but
please let me know who you are if you'd like to talk with me.
Take care
James
