NoteBook doesn’t work that way. Each page is endlessly long. If you think about it I think you’ll see why this is so: the outlines are expandable and collapse-able,and there are many, many ways to vary the length of page necessary for the currently shown information (including, say, making the window less wide). In essense, the total length per page changes constantly. If NoteBook had only one page per Notebook (like a word processor), then it could dynamically change the number of “screen pages” to accommodate the page and what is currently show. But NoteBook allows tens, hundreds, of pages. You can see where this would get complex and confusing.

That NoteBook allows many pages, and keeps each page’s information on that page, is, I think you’ll find as you use NoteBook more, a comforting and useful feature.

You can and should use as many Notebook pages as you want. My suggestion is put different information on each one, and let then get as big (long) as the topic requires.

I agree with Deb.
I think it would be a hugely useful feature to have the ability to insert page breaks or natural page “wrapping.” I’ve ended up with either hugely long pages where I am always working on the bottom couple cells or endless amounts of topics that have created hundreds on needless topics/dividers in my table of contents. I find this to be very annoying ‘glitch” that is causing me to use the software less and less.

Also helpful would be clipping service for Entourage and keyboard shortcuts that match OSX (e.g. spacebar for quicklook)

What you put in a notebook page, and how long it is, depends entirely on the user and how he/she organizes the ideas. NoteBook can do nothing to make pages too short or too long. Kirby also explained why automatic wrapping would be unlikely to be implemented, and I beg to agree.

Yes – I would like a Divide Page command/shortcut, similar to the Divide Cell one, to insert manual breaks when it is time to split a page’s content (the current Page Break command seems only useful for export, at least I think). But doing it by adding a new page and cutting/pasting text is no huge effort.

What I was thinking about was simply a new way to view really long pages – not a by inserting a “new page” as such (and thus creating a new entry in the ToC) but by allowing a command to be inserted by the user that allows you to view by flipping rather than by scrolling down.

I’m an old school journalist and I won’t pretend to have a clue about what can or can’t be programmed into the software. I like the idea of reading long pages I have created just as I would in my manuscript notebooks – by flipping pages. In any case, I enjoy using Notebook and commend the authors on a nice program.

Nacho, maybe adding a Page View option could work to host all customer’s preferences. Choose Endless, and you see the page as it is now; choose Paged, and a set of ‘virtual’ pages will be created on the fly (maybe a little slower in refreshing the screen, when you collapse of expand some topics).

I’ve commented elsewhere in this forum on the issue. I like that idea as well.
