Request: Ability to Create New Master Pages "Based on..."

[Mark Oehlschlager]

I would like to request an update to the "New Master Page" and "Spread Properties" dialogue box to include a "Based on ..." attribute so that the parent-child relationship of child master pages can be more explicitly defined and redefined in these dialogue boxes.

Presently, one right-clicks on a child master to select "Apply Master ..." to configure a parent-child relationship. And the only indication of this linkage occurs if one hovers the cursor over the child master to reveal a tool-tip message.

It would be better to add a "Based on ..." attribute field to the "New Master Page" and "Spread Properties" dialogue box, just as one can set up parent-child paragraph styles.

Thank you for your consideration.
