    Default Curiosity..is there a way to add a different size page...

    and avoid the repeated situations of of the rest of the site. In other words I have a catalog site, and it has turned out nicely. Now I need to add several pages that really do not relate to the basic concept and are of a different size, smaller. I know I can work around this, but would like to avoid the work-around if possible. Thanks.

    Hi Giddyup, In the options menu at the bottom of the page size tab clear the checkmark from "make all pages the same" then you you should be able to resize the pages as you wish.

    I do not see that anywhere. I see a Page tab, but I don't see a Page Size tab and there's no Options at the bottom of the tab. Can't figure where it might be hiding.

    I think you are looking at the web properties, you need to look at the options panel. You will find it under utilities> options. Here is a screenshot.

    I finally found it. It was unchecked, and what I discovered, I think, is that you cannot use any of the graphics (or repeating graphics) in the new page. When I did then stuff began to change in the previously constructed page and it turned out to be a looming disaster so I reverted. The lesson I may have learned from this is to have a template area on the HD set and that all graphics in that area are neutral, or not set to be repeated on all pages. Having said that, how do you unset a specific graphic as Repeatable without affecting all? Angel, thanks for the guidance in finding the Page Size.

    Hi Giddyup

    Right click the object
    select "stop updating"
    click "all copies" or "just this copy"
