paragraph formatting?

I'm finding no way whatsoever to do even basic paragraph formatting... left, right, center, justified, etc. What am I missing?

Format menu? Format > Alignment > Align Left, etc.

Ahhhhh... OK ;-) I guess I'll have to get a bit better-acquainted with the menu bar. It's the curse of the second program, I guess... looking for stuff in the same places they were in iWeb. Thanks for the help.

We appreciate your forbearance. :-) (And are looking at ways to make the iWeb transition easier and easier in future versions.)

Thanks... and time is of the essence on iWeb migration since so many of us were in denial for the past year, but have to face the fact of Apple's recent announcement... and are now looking for alternatives. A one-page summary of the differences in core concepts between iWeb and Sandvox would be extremely helpful. NOT a marketing piece saying how great Sandvox is by comparison... you already have one of those. But rather, this should be a "here's what you're used to, and here's how we do it instead" sort of page.

I would have to agree that is a bit hard to familiarize yourself with a new environment as for any transition of software you are using.

Maybe a simple sandvox for dummies would be really useful though that already comes with the help package you ship with the software being downloaded. I hope that I would be more acquainted with the interface so I could work faster.

The problem with any "software for dummies" piece is the "Curse of Knowledge." Once you know something, it's almost impossible to imagine not knowing it. And so it makes it really tough to write things for those who don't. A universal problem, IMO.
