Hi, Donald, Columns are a property of page styles and sections. For what you want, simply assign a different page style to your second page: one with only one column. The "Default" style will probably suffice. The new style will propagate to the following pages. Questions like yours are better directed to our users' mailing list: or to the forum.

Hi Donald, Please add page break with a different page style, and then to modify the column setting for the subsequent page..In AOO, the page settings are applied to page style. So, you need to use page style for your scenarios. Hope it helpful for you.Thanks. On Mon, Apr 1, 2013 at 7:47 AM, Donald Mayse wrote: > I recently started a document with 4 columns.

I recently started a document with 4 columns. I then tried to have no columns on subsequent pages. As far as I can tell, it can't be done without removing the columns from the first page. Can you incorporate some method of easily discontinuing columns in a document? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
