Christine M Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 I would really like the ability to rearrange the order of Master Pages in Affinity Publisher. Is this on the roadmap? Thanks! nodeus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R C-R Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 If you mean on pages, just drag them up or down in the Layers panel, like you would with any other layer.

Pšenda Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 OP request: "rearrange the order of Master Pages". Although I do not know why, but I assume that for some reason, he wants to change the order of Master Pages in Master Pages group (Pages panel). Not the order of Master Pages associated with a particular Page. There is a rearrange obvious, that it would not be required.

walt.farrell Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 1 hour ago, Pšenda said: And they are not, and their order cannot be changed :-) True, there are no page thumbnails, but there are master page layer thumbnails which are similar in some ways. And, their order on that page can be changed (that was the reason that @R C-R posted his comment, I believe). Just right-click the one you want to move up or down in the layer stack, choose Edit Detached, then select and drag it. That's useful in some cases discussed in other forum topics. But as we know it's not what Christine wanted, it's not relevant to answering her question.

Copper Star Media Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 +1 vote for the ability to rearrange master pages with the left hand pages area. When I'm creating new planners, sometimes I'll want to add pages that I may not have planned originally. I would like to logically place those new pages in order in the pages area. thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
