I have this problem in Pages on Mac which really annoys me.
When I have a blank page, and I add a table, and add as many rows as I wish, Pages will automatically make a break at some point and the rows with continue to flow on the next page. Just like on this image here:
Now if there's already some text before that table, this won't work. Instead, the WHOLE table will go to the next page. How annoying is that?
This is what it looks like when there's text before the table:
And now I add a few more rows, and what does it do? It does this here:
Anyone know how to fix that? I want the table to stay just below the text, and the rows to flow in the next page, without the whole table going to the next page. It's crazy how complicated Pages is.
I hope it's possible to do this at all! Thank you.
[doublepost=1461237484][/doublepost]Found the solution. Or better said, one person on the internet found it.
Select the whole document (select a blank space in the page somewhere). Go to the "Format" tab (top right corner) and then to the "More" tab.
Then uncheck "Prevent window & orphan lines".
And it works! Maybe it will help someone.
