    Default Page length cannot be adjusted by (blue dot line)

    I’m rebuilding a few things on this site. Www.larrykrause.ca.

    In the desktop variant I cannot shorten the length of the page by moving the blue dot line upwards. The iPhone variant is fine, but I’ve got a ton of space below the footer on the larger variant.
    I do not, and have not used any push functions, or automatic fit functions. Can’t seem to solve this one. I recently added the footer to see if would make any difference. It did not. Many thanks to all the helpful people the board.

    Check to see if [ ] All pages in document the same is checked. If so, try un-checking it.

    Thanks Gary. That was all unchecked to begin with.

    In Page Options > General is the document type set to Web Document?

    In Page Options > Page Size is the box [ ] Lock Page Size checked?

    Page is set to web document, and lock page is unchecked.
    This one is a stumper Gary.
    The page background is a graphic that I’ve cobbled together but I don’t think that’s got anything to do with it.
    And I also discovered that I can’t adjust the page length in the mobile variant either.
    I’ve gone thru every single page option And unchecked anything that could influence changing the page length.
    Just can’t figure this one out.

    Perplexing. Try this, create a new web document. Copy one of the pages (right click, Copy Page) then go to the new document and Paste > Paste Page.

    Now can you adjust the depth of the page?

    Bill, no problem

    Three steps:
    1. Copy your master XAR/WEB and only work on that.
      1. Delete all unwanted pages (one at a time).
      2. Save (and rename) the "degenerate" file.

    2. Reply in TG and pick the Go Advanced button.
      1. Click the paperclip icon (Attachments > Add Files > Choose File)
      2. Navigate to the location of the file you want to upload to TG.
      3. Click Upload > Insert Inline.
      4. Close the File Upload Manager window.

    3. Complete your Post.
