  • @Zippy66
    @Zippy66 8 месяцев назад +91

    It never used to be so long winded. Years ago, you could just say to start numbering at whichever page you liked. Then they went and changed it and made it so complicated

    • @gj3044
      @gj3044 8 месяцев назад +4

      Wow. That's too much for what should be a simple section issue. Why, I wonder, did ms make it this complicated?

    • @KevinStratvert
      @KevinStratvert  8 месяцев назад +16

      @@gj3044 The challenge is that people have many different needs for page numbers. Some want roman numerals for the table of contents and then Arabic number format for the text. Some want page numbers to restart in each chapter / section. By having the functionality to add sections and to then format the page numbers depending on the section, you can cover all use cases. Once you run through the flow once, it becomes intuitive. I'm not sure how you would design it differently to cover all the different use cases.

    • @anneclassvideos1745
      @anneclassvideos1745 2 месяца назад

      Also, I think having this method adds accessibility features for those with lower vision. The section divisions and numbers can be identified by text-to-speech readers which makes it easier for the listener to follow along with the structure of the document.

    I have been using Word since it was an egg and thought that you couldn't teach me about page numbers, as I knew all about it.
    I persevered with your video and, of course, you explained Section Breaks, which in the 34 years I've been working with PCs, I didn't know anything about.
    I will never doubt your superior knowledge again! Thank you for that.
    My only concern with this is that I may have to spend my life watching your entire collection of videos, as you explain things so well that I learn mahooosive amounts.
    Did I say my only concern, previously? My other concern is that my head will explode with all of this new information!
    Thanks again!

I have separated the document into sections and put page number 1 on my page 6. Great. However, it is not extending the rest of the page numbers through the remainder of the document. I'm trying to figure it out.
