WayneTh Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Everything I see posted says go to "view" - "studio" - "pages". The only studio I can find is under windows and it does not show a page option. How do I unhide master pages in Affinity Designer 2? Thanks for any advice!

Master Pages are a Publisher concept, not a Designer concept. In Designer, if you have a document from Publisher which contains Pages, you can navigate between the regular document pages using the navigator to the left of the Status Bar at the bottom of the application window. Edit: Or use the control next to the navigator to switch to Master Pages. Edited December 8, 2022 by walt.farrell Incorrect info about Master Pages. Thanks, R C-R.

Are you sure about that? The page navigator in AD has a toggle to show Master pages & it seems like I can use that to edit Master page content, although I have not tested this extensively.

WayneTh Posted December 8, 2022 Author Share Posted December 8, 2022 Thank you everyone. Problem solved. I sure wasted a lot of time before I posted here. Again, thanks. walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben10syd Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 I spent ages looking for the pages panel in studio while in Publisher but the mode was set to Designer mode while in Publisher. Quite easily confused because you auto think that it should be clear. Would be good to offer a visual of this in the help in the program though.
