Details

The page size that was last selected is set as default in the Select button, so that it is more easy to add multiple pages of the same size.

If you choose the Display page list, then some screen sizes may be listed twice. This is because at the top of the list, first the sizes of the screens that are currently connected to your computer are listed, and then the standard list of sizes.
