Cannot add rows and I cannot delete a page

As long as Apple pages has been around, it seems odd that deleting a page is STILL a problem?

Are the developers sleeping? Also adding a row as mentioned in previous entries is still a problem too.

Has anyone come up with solutions that work for either of these issues?

If you are using a Blank Layout template, then you can right-click on a thumbnail (both a page and a section) and choose delete to remove that specific page. You cannot do this in a word-processing (blank template) document where you must resort to gymnastics and select all content on the page to be deleted, hit backspace, and then backspace again to remove the hidden page break. No workaround for these conditions owing to Pages design.


You can send direct feedback to the Pages product team from the Pages application menu.

In what context? A row to a table or another line of text? Adding an additional row (or more) to the end of a table is as simple as clicking once on the table's row tool =⃝ and again, clicking one or more times on the increment ^ button. No rows should be selected in the table when this is done.
