Persistent "What's New" On Opening Pages and Numbers
Since the last update, whenever I open Pages or Numbers the "What's New" box opens. I can't find any way to disable it. Is there one?
Thanks,

Yes, clicking on the "Continue" button causes the box to close, but the next time I open Pages (or Numbers) the What's New box reappears. And I can find no way to disable it in Pages or in Numbers Preferences.
When you close that What's new dialog, create and save a new Pages document, even if it is a blank document. I don't have an issue of this dialog returning after a new version of Pages is installed, and I close that dialog. Same drill in Numbers.
That didn't work either. I should mention that I am using an iMac Retina (Late 2015), running MacOS Catalina (ver. 10.15.7). Don't know if that helps, but I guess it can't hurt.
With previous versions of Pages and Numbers there has been a box to check to not show What's New again. This is the first time I haven't found one, or any other way to stop it from popping up. Very annoying!
Click on the button of the What's new dialog. That should satisfy it, set a flag in the Pages preferences list, and not return in subsequent Pages launches.
