Arne Skinlo Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 I am working on a document in Affinity Publisher and had inserted page numbers, but decided to change size and placement. I decided to delete the existing one and add a new. Unfortunately, it seems the old one is not quite deleted and prevent making a new one. At least I am not able to do so. Attached is a screenshot of the old field that I am not able to delete. What shall I do to make a new page numbering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it could be on a Master page. Go to that Master page and delete it there joe_l and Callum 2 Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

Arne Skinlo Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 Just one more question: I don't want page numbering on the last page that is the back cover. How can it be removed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the last page in Pages panel, right-click on the Master layer in the Layer panel, select "Edit Detached", remove the page number and click the button "Finish".

Arne Skinlo Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 Apparently, I do something wrong here since I don't manage. Attached is a screenshot of what I can see. What I did was to mark the last page and then right click on the Master A page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_l Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 You right-clicked the page not the Layer for your Master Page in the Layers Panel. Quote ---------- Windows 10 / 11, Complete Suite Retail and Beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arne Skinlo Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 Now it became clear to me. Problem solved, thank you! joe_l 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
