can't format sections separetly
I've added section breaks in my document, but when I try to format each section. It applies the format changes to the whole document, not just that one section. How can I get it to format each section separately?
Re: can't format sections separetly
Which formatting change you are trying to apply for individual section?

I'm trying to adjust the top and bottom margins separately for each section.

Page margins are a chapter property, not a section property.

Re: can't format sections separetly
Ok thanks. That seemed to work. But speaking of margins, is there a way to customize the ribbon at the top to display the margin settings, instead of having to click on the margins tab to see what they're set to?
Re: can't format sections separetly
Ribbon customization is not available in FreeOffice, as this feature is exclusive to the commercial edition of SoftMaker Office.
