Multiple Master Pages: Apply Master Page not working


dvdrw

Recommended Posts

Affinity Publisher 1.7.3 OSX 10.14.6

Created 4 master pages in new print press ready document.

Each master pages has a different custom size:

A 450x1900 MM
B 450x2200 MM
C 450x3000 MM
D 1600x1200 MM

Publisher give document page 1 always the first entered master page (A).
Adding a second page via "add pages" (after of before page 1 doesn't matter for this issue) and master page C selected via the pull down menu does:

. indeed result in a new page
. and indeed the mouse over indicate the name of the chosen master page C
. and content placed in master page C is showed on the new added page
. but spread dimensions are not of master page A but that of master page A 🥺

Clearing a page master setting and then applying another master wil still not give the right dimensions corresponding chosen master.

I know a can change every spread individual: but I like to control that for all particular pages at once via Masterpages.

Can I conclude that it is not possible to work with a document with multiple sized pages controlled and updated in size by multiple sized master pages?

Applying a Master Page to a normal page does not affect the normal page size.

There are separate page settings for a  Master Page and normal pages.

If you want certain pages to be the same size as certain Master Pages you have to change the page size separately
