I dont know what i clicked afew days ago, but my pages turned into this weird thing. Any idea how to off it? It's supposed to be one whole document with hundreds of pages, but it split into tiny parts?

Unfortunately, the layout thing appears even when I make a new document. It appeared after I misclicked something during lag, and then didn't think much since it didn't really change anything, but I realize now that it apparently affects something.

 


Check this setting:

Change to Vertically

It looks like you created alternate layouts.

You have a couple of options:

  • Drag the alternate layouts to the main one (I believe this will copy the pages and you may have to delete the alternatives afterwards.)
  • Unclick the section indicator on the first page of each layout.

Unless it is some type of document corruption, as far as I know, it's not something that should have happened automatically.
