adrm Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Perhaps it's just me being an idiot, but I'm having a hard time converting a Single-master to a Facing master page. Mostly when it comes to setting margins, but the whole master behaves oddly when it was initially created as Single and later converted to Facing. If I initially create the master as Facing I see no issues. But if I create it as Single I find I'm better off deleting it and starting all over if Facing was what I needed. Anyone else seeing this? If I recall correctly, I've noticed this in earlier versions, as well. To recreate: Create a new master as Single. Go back and edit and change to Facing. Try to set margins, page size, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Gabe Posted September 4, 2020 Staff Share Posted September 4, 2020 Hi @adrm, I'm sorry but I'm not really sure what you mint by this. What do you expect and what actually happens? Seems to be working fine on my end. Screen_Recording_2020-09-04_at_14_32_24.mov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrm Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Thanks, Gabe. It seems to be working well at your end. I was tearing my hair out yesterday, so I'll start afresh today and perhaps make a screen recording if I still have issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrm Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Perhaps you can look at the attached .aftemplate file? Try changing the first master (Chapter Start Odd) to a Facing master. To me it seems to hang onto its single origin after the change ... or? MyTest 6x9.aftemplate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adrm Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 At my end, the new facing spread is a single double width page. The margins seem to apply to this wide page, rather than to two facing pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
