Teo2 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Hello. The question relates to the purchased Affinity Publisher. How can you edit graphics on masterpages on publishing pages? In InDesign, this is ctrl + shift + click. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you edit graphics on masterpages on publishing pages? In InDesign, this is ctrl + shift + click. If there's a textframe available on the masterpage and you want to enter text from a document page using this masterpage: Double click on the textframe and you can start typing (make sure the element isn't locked in the layers panel, otherwise unlock first). If there's a placeholder image available on the masterpage and you want to replace the image from a document page using this masterpage: Select the image and click the 'replace image'-button as you would do it 'normally' too. Also scale and rotate the image inside the placeholder is possible from within the document page. I don't think it's possible to change positions, sizes and structures of shapes and curves available on the masterpage from within the document page. At least I didn't manage to make that work while testing a little bit here now. But maybe somebody else here knows if this is possible somehow?

Teo2 Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 I mean, for example, to change the background color under the page number or the color of the line repeated on each page. In InDesign, these elements are editable on every page of the publication even though they are a master pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Select the page. In its Layers panel, right-click the Master Page layer (e.g., the orange-flagged layer named, Master A) and choose Edit Detached. Make your changes. Then click Finish on the orange bar at the top of the page.
