An existing master page can be made to a child?

I have about a dozen in a document master pages, that I converted to Pagemaker. I need to make some changes of trial and error to the page layout > margins. I don't want to make changes repeated available to each master page. I prefer to install a new master page layout and make other children of it. Don't see any way to do this. When I select any existing master page on the table on the Page and go to the menu of the control panel Page, Master's Options is grayed out.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

OK, so the result here is the complaint that the selection of a single page of a multiple page master spread in the Pages panel does not give you the context or flyout menu options 'Master for MASTERNAME.'

I think that the simpler solution is to rightclick the master name, to the left of the icon (or, in your case, below), rather than the icon. Then, it still works.

I would call this a bug of cosmetics.

    Hello

    Please open the master page and make an edition > all select and then copy.

    After that, go to the new master page and use ADSI > paste in place.

    In this way all the elements of the master page will be copied on the other page and the page will be duplicated.

    You can do within the same site or different sites.

    I hope this helps.

  • A Master Page can contain a row of a table?

    Hello everyone, once again,.

    Currently, we insert a table of one row and two columns at the top of the first page (body) of each chapter. The left column is numbered automatic and the right contains the title of the chapter (title 1). I'm updating our models and thought, he would save time if the first Master Page included in this table. I thought that we would be able to type the title in the title on the body page 1 column but could do for the master page, but it's academic now, because the table is not even appear at all.

    After searching the forum, I read a few articles related but seemingly contradictory. One post said "the Page function master register ignores paragraphs in the tables", but another post advises someone to 'make a landscape Master Page to hold tables.

    I can do what I'm trying to do, and if not, can anyone suggest a work around?

    As always, thank you

    I am happy that it works for you. You mentioned the adjustment of the alignment. I suggest doing the first tab in the paragraph of title a centering tab, positioned half the width of the rectangle filled background. Then if numbers grow larger than 9, they will still be Center nicely in the rectangle.

  • If master pages can be flexible

    I intend to install Google ads on some pages. For these pages, I created a special page on master and placed the ad code from Google for a small banner at the bottom of the master page

    On the pages, the location of the announcement is fixed and will not move upwards or downwards. Is it possible to put an ad or other content on a master page, so it moves the design?

    Thank you

    Oops. Place the ad code in the footer seems to be the simple solution

  • This page can be made in Dreamweaver?

    http://www.mammothmountain.com/MyMammoth/?section=weather

    I love the panels collapse and especially the tabs as a folder under the heading "WEATHER". Are these reducible panels Spry files by tabs ("Extended Forecast", "Resources", "Road Conditions") or something else? They are with custom graphics or can DW do folder - like tabs like that?

    I don't do any sense out of source code, which is CSS, what is Spry.  I like the white on white with subtle dropshadows. Are these CSS dropshadows or custom graphics? This whole page that can be created in only Dreamweaver?

    TIA

    If you have a good grasp of Photoshop or Fireworks for graphics libraries, HTML, CSS and JavaScript or jQuery scripts, you can do it in DW or any other HTML editor.  The quality of the sites that you create depends on the skills that you bring to the table.

    HTML happy =

    CSS or Cascading Stylesheets = styles

    DHTML, JavaScripts, Ajax and Spry = functionality and interactivity

    I like the white on white with subtle dropshadows. Are these CSS dropshadows or custom graphics?

    Your example uses of custom graphics, but text-shadow and box-shadow are possible with CSS3 code alone.

    http://ALT-Web.com/demos/CSS-shadows.shtml

    I love the panels collapse and especially the tabs as a folder under the heading "WEATHER".

    Those are signs to tabs.  You can use jQuery, or DW built in panels to Spry tab to do this.

  • Header and footer in a sensitive master page

    Hello

    Is there a better method to set headers and footers on an existing master page, which has multiplied the breakpoints?

    Method 1... If I set the header/footer on a breakpoint, the adjustment is only on this breakpoint, so I have to drag all them breakpoint individually, which can lead to mistakes I've made.

    Method 2... remove all headers/feet reset breakpoints, and then add breakpoints.

    Also a header/footer value is adjustable from the keyboard instead of drag?

    Thank you very much

    Gary

    Drag is the only way to set a value of footer

    I begins at conception (phone) most small and work up, but I know others who like to start with top so its up to you... IMO a footer | header with more than two elements each seems cluttered but again its your design.

  • Master Page Bugs? Do not update the changes or apply correctly, New Page.

    I work for our new models of project with master pages and have found what appears to be several major problems:

    1 when I make changes in the Master Page (.htt file), none of those changes propagate to the topics that have been attributed to this Master Page. He shouldn't do that?

    2. as an alternative, I tried to apply a Master Page to several topics on the pod to the list of topics. The first problem with this is that you can not apply the existing Master Page. So, I had to create a new Master Page with my changes and then tried to apply it. However, several problems occur. First of all, none of the new Master Page formatting appears correctly. Second, for some reason it is duplicate the breadcrumbs at the top of the page (each master page, before and after only had a breadcrumb). It seems to have combined some of the formatting both before and after the template.

    I must also point out that when I apply the Master Page with changes to a new topic, it works correctly.

    I have read the documentation carefully and that you feel that I'm doing this correctly. The problem seems to be that the feature does not as promised. I see this as a serious problem. Our models are likely to change over time, and I need the ability to apply changes massively.

    Anyone know what could be the problem?

    Hello

    You must first understand Master Pages are used in two completely different ways. Looks like you make changes to the space reserved for the body of the Page Master and expected to see changes influence-related topics. Sorry, but that never worked.

    There are therefore two ways Master Pages are designed to work in RoboHelp.

    Method 1 - used to infuence the EXISTING content.

    Maybe you have created 1,000 and now you want to add a header, footer, or both to these existing entries. You set a Master Page and add a header, footer, or both to the Page Master and you associate it with topics. All of these topics now have a header or footer. Any changes made to the header and/or footer is filled throughout with all related topics.

    Method 2 - used to influence the new items that you create.

    You may know that you want to create many subjects that should have the same look and feel. Maybe all of them begin with a table that contains an image and text. So you set a Master Page and configure the space reserved for the body you want to see it. When you create new topics, you point to the Master Page so that as the topics are created, the content of the body of the Page master is filled in on the subject as a starting point. Once the topic has been created initially, the changes to the Master Page ARE NOT reflected in the topics. This method works identically to make a copy of a document. The copy is identical to the original. And any changes made to the original will be never copied during the copy. Only NEW copies will receive the changes.

    The breadcrumbs go, you have probably GLOBAL breadcrumbs activated in the recipe for the presentation of a single Source. This means that everything gets crumbs during the creation of the exit process. If you try to use the SELECTIVE Breading by adding space to the Page master, you must disable the breadcrumbs GLOBAL to avoid double.

    I hope that helps a little... Rick

  • Lose the Master Page assignments after import layout

    I have a book with about 40 chapters, and I'm trying to change the page layout.  I update the master pages in Chapter 1 and then use the import formats to import master pages in the other chapters.

    However, when I go in the other chapters, the first pages lose their 'first' assignment page and just came with a normal allocation of L/R.

    If I Master Page use manually and change the first "chapter" page it works OK, but who will become a bit tedious for those chapters.

    Is it possible to keep the existing master page to use assignments when importing to page layout?

    Thank you!

    John

    Ah, interesting.  Of course, during the test of this morning, he had not this problem.

    But your message prompted me to finally understand that cryptic MasterPageMaps and so I made a chart like this, which seems to do the trick:

    Paragraph tag name Right hand Master Page (or master Front Page) Left Master Page Indicator of rank (single, on the pages up to this amended) Comments
    Titrechapitre First Unique Titrechapitre page as the first master page

    Thanks as always for your quick and helpful answer!

    OK there are two Associates as I see it.

    Each of your pages is made up of a solid, opaque, for a main image bitmap.
    Master Pages, by default, are at the bottom of the layer stack. Your
    tabs ARE present, you just can't see them because they are covered by
    the bitmap image.

    Assuming that you do not have these page images of the elements multiple objects,
    where you can change the blue background, there are always two things you
    can do, which are pretty easy.

    Go to each page and temporarily lower the opacity of the layer 1.
    Use the marquee tool to draw a selection around the area of the tabs.
    Delete the selection.
    Replace the lay full opacity.

    OR

    Try to drag the master page to the top of the layer stack in each page.
    Hide or remove the master page background.
    This option is a little more complicated, but I've been able to do. Expect that the
    bar black to appear before you release the mouse button. You may need to try
    This a few times before it works.

  • Please can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Text stream object and the master page

    I need to create a book. I did a master page with a page number, the text box and the header, made up of 65 pages in total.

    clicked on apply to all, he said , he asked, and each consecutive page has an 'A' on this subject, but no figure of page? And I clicked to place the text, the first page is visible, but none of the subsequent pages. There is a small top of the icon to the left of each page that says that if I click on it: "this story is the flow of the main text of the master", but there is no visible text, it did not sink on the page. Help! I am a new user of Indesign. I tried all the online tutorials, you tube, etc. Lyndas yesterday, but nothing covered this issue. Any ideas?

    We need to see a screenshot of the page master and a document page, but it seems to me that you put the page marker in a primary text block. I don't think it will work. Markers must be in an ordinary setting which does not thread with something else. You can put other static text in the frame with the marker, however, if you wish.

    Hello world

    Does anyone have a solution?

    Thank you

    Anne

    I did an exploration of the possibilities, and I can't find a situation where access to the part of Master Pages from the Pages panel is completely lost. The separator between sections of pages, Master Pages and document is drag-able, but even by slide it upwards or downwards is not completely hide the masters... at least in my control panel.

    So, the strangeness you encounter is exactly the kind of strangeness that lightens in general with a reset of the preferences. This at least is the first thing you should try if you have not already.
