Kevin's Koffee Kart Master Page Problem

I'm working through Chapter 3 of 'Adobe Muse - Classroom in a book'. Chapter entitled 'Working with Master Pages'.
At the end of the lesson I'm creating a duplicate master, calling it 'MasterFlash' and deleting the Koffee Kart logo. When I apply this master to the Home page and Preview Site In Browser, I encounter a larger header area on my home page, that pushes the rest of the page down.
Is this supposed to happen? If so, I don't understand why.
Many thanks for any advice or help in advance.

Sorry for the delay. No, the Header marked is where is should be.
It seems it has rectified itself but I find the same thing happening on other pages when I Preview them - especially when there's no page specific content on that page.
Has anyone else had problems and glitches with Preview mode?

  • CS6 master page problems with CS5.5 script

    Hi.
    I've an extensive script created for CS5.5, that creates 16 documents, styles them, and adds them to a book file.
    Under CS6, it still works fine, creates all the necessary stylesheets and master pages, but the master page items are shifted.
    I've checked the position with the Page tool, and clicked Show Master Page Overlay, and the centre of the master pages are now sitting at the centre of the spread (which is also the zero point of the ruler).
    I've tried versioning for CS5.5, but I can't get it to stick (compiling simply changes CS6 to CS5").
    Can anyone tell me how to correct the problem? Ideally, I'd like to append the part of my script that creates the master page. This starts thus:
    set currentMaster to master spread "A-Master" of Pub00
              set base name of currentMaster to "Standard Pages"
              tell currentMaster
      make guide with properties {orientation:vertical, location:"138mm"}
      make guide with properties {orientation:vertical, location:"140mm"}
                        tell margin preferences of pages
                                  set top to topMargin
                                  set left to insideMargin
                                  set bottom to bottomMargin
                                  set right to outsideMargin
                                  set column count to docColumns
                                  set column gutter to colGutter
                        end tell
    ... and then I start creating para and character styles, and add various frames with content to the masters.
    Another section to create a master starts with ...
    tell currentMaster
                                  tell page 1
    ... so should I use the 'tell page 1' block to alter the master overlay, or somewhere else?
    Each document only has three different master pages, but I now have to open all 16, and use the Page tool to shift the master overaly, which can be pretty time consuming.
    Any pointers would be most appreciated.

    I'm seeing this as well, but when I go to override master page items to a normal page.  This code worked fine on CS5, but broke when we updated to CS6.
    on override_master_page_items(p)
      -- Overrides all possible master page items for a given page.
      tell application "Adobe InDesign CS6"
        try
          -- Get the list of items to override
          set i to master page items of p
          set b to {}
          repeat with v in i
            -- Build the list of items that we will override so we can process it all at   once (for speed)
            try
              if allow overrides of v is true then
                -- Only override an item if it is in fact possible to do so.
                set b to {b, v}
              end if
            end try
          end repeat
          -- Override all the items that we found above.
          set overriddenItems to override b destination page p
        end try
      end tell
    end override_master_page_items
    Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

  • Master page problems

    Hi, how to solve this problem.
    I have http://imgur.com/Bx1UX8Q and I would like to make something like this http://imgur.com/DStlk1m

    You need to select your page 2 in the pages palette, then choose 'Numbering and section options'. Select start new section and set the page number to 1. You will get an alert telling you that page 1 already exists in your document - follow the instructions in the alert to overcome this.
    Good luck!

  • Problem with Master Pages CS5

    Hello there,
    I started updating a file I created several years ago in InDesign CS3. I am currently running CS5.
    I have multiple master pages set up in this facing pages document. Sometimes I applied Master A to the left-hand page and Master D to the right-hand page.
    The problem is, on Master A there is a rule set up that extends from the centre spine out towards the outside edge of the page. Master D does not have that rule. However, on any set of pages where I have applied Master A to the left-hand page and Master D to the right-hand page the rule is showing up, as if I have applied the Master A to the right hand page as well.
    The rule on Master A starts at the centre spine EXACTLY. If I  move the rule on the right-hand page slight out from the centre, the rule won't show up.
    I have included some screenshots to illustrate the problem. I'd appreciate any help! Thanks!
    Master A screenshot
    Master D screenshot
    Master A applied on the left-hand page, Master D applied on the right-hand page.

    Thanks again for your response Peter.
    I have 5 of these files.
    I tried the export to IDML from CS5, and then opened that and it didn't work.
    I tried reassigning the problem page to Master A, then changed it to D. That didn't work either.

  • Problem with Master Pages Incorrectly Formatting

    I have an employee whose master pages are not opening up correctly. Every time she opens up a blank In Design file, then selects to open up the Master Pages, her fonts are incorrect on several of the master pages and some of the sizes are incorrect. This error does not occur when I hope the Master Pages or when my other employee opens up the Master Pages. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Your question is a good one. I was taught to always open up a blank In Design file, then import the master pages, so as to not accidentally re-save over the original master pages. We use the master pages as templates for projects we work on daily. It would seem easier to just open up the master pages, save as, then start working, which is what she's been doing for the time being. We do have back ups of our master pages. Just we were trained on one process, and it's challenging to break up or change that already inherent process.
    I'll look into seeing if she has any default styles set up on her system that could be the cause of her problems.
    Many thanks for your assistance.

  • CS 5.5 problem with PDF links of master page TOC

    Hi
    Lately i moved from ID CS5 to CS5.5 working on Windows 7.
    All spreads of my document are based on a master page. This mater page includes a pane with a TOC. This TOC serves as navigation pane.
    When exporting the document to interactive PDF, the TOC appears on all spreads but the TOC links function well on the first spread and will not function on the next pages.
    The interactive PDF export settings include: "open in full screen mode" and "buttons and Media = include all".
    I made a test, and added hyperlink on the master page next to the TOC, now the TOC links turnned active on all pages but the PDF will not open in full screen although i did not change the export settings. If i remove this extra hyperlink the TOC links problem returns.
    I used the same document a lot in the past (with CS5) and did not have any such problem.
    Hope i managed to describe this case well.
    Highly appreciate your help.

    Thanks Steve
    I trashed the two preference files as instructed.
    Expoerted the file to IDML.
    Opened the IDML file and saved it as an ID file.
    The problem still exist.

  • I created mega menu in adobe muse ( master page ) but the thing is when i preview the menu in other pages the stuff i alreahy had created will overlap the menu. Is there anything i can do fix that problem up. I'd like to have the menu overlap the stuff i

    I created mega menu in adobe muse ( master page ) but the thing is when I preview that menu in other pages contents I already had created will overlap the menu. Is there any options that would fix that problem up. I'd like to have the menu overlap the contents. That does not happen on master page ( master page looks good ) Thank you very much.

    Place the menu on its own layer above the rest of the page content.

  • Master Page Template problems

    1.)    I have a problem with the Master Page Template when I place a Back to Top link at the bottom of the page of the Master and then generate or publish my product the link only works at the higher level. If pages in the product are under a folder or if the pages are in a different book the link does not work. I’m using the # for the Back to Top link.
    2.)    Another problem with the Master if you place a See Also Button on the master page you are limited on your project pages as to what you placed in the links on the Master Page. In other words if I have a project that has 30 pages and 10 chapters and I want the link to jump to chapter 3 page 5 and I only palced the 10 chapter links in the Master See Also Button I can not change the link under the See Also Button on chapter 3 page 5 with out it breaking the link to the Master Page. Is what has to be done Is place a See Also Button on each and evey page and edit the links in each and every one.
    3.)    Breadcrumb trail links. Why in the Design view you can not change the Breadcrumb trail links to above a graphics header if you have placed on your Master Page? If others are having problems with this just go into the HTML and place the breadcrumb section in your header section. You may have to play around with the formating of your styles to get it just right.

    codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" -->
    That says that anything outside of that area can't be modified, right?
    Nope. It says anything outside that area is editable, i.e., it's treated as an editable region.  This is the default behavior for a DW template and it allows you to place server scripting or javascript code above the <html> tag, or below the </html> tag in any child page. 
    Unless you are using server scripting, or are very advanced in your use of DW, you should never mess with this default setting.

  • Master page spread - data merge problem

    ok - I  prematurely posted b4 that I could successfully do this but am stuck with one  problem that is a show stopper.
    I have  a master page spread [left and right pages] which has several fields which I populate on  over 200 pages with data merge. I got this to work ok but teh snag is  that the merge only works  on teh first master page - and since InDesig automatically starts with a right hand page - this would be teh 2nd page of my spread - I can get  both pages to merge data correclty but I wind up with  a starting right hand page - then a left hand page  facing a right hand page which is not for hte same record but the record below it. Is tehre any way aroudn this? Is tehre any way I can force inDesign to start with a  left hand page?

    whohee - it worked - thanks a bunch - you guys in this forum are gre
    at!

  • Master Page Saving problem

    I use Master Pages in my help file. I also like to automatically save documents on closing. If a master page is being used, I get an additional dialog box to click each time I close a document asking if I want to save changes to the master page. Normally, what I do changes nothing on the master page, but I have to click this dang dialog box anyway. And since I haven't made any changes to the Master Page, the message in the dialog box is very confusing. Is there any way to get rid of this PITA query?

    You  might want to try creating a variable to store the URL. Then insert the  variable into the footer. Configure the variable to link to the site.

  • Problem in displaying dynamic table placed in master page

    Hi all,
    I have placed a dynamic table in my master page. When the page overflows the dynamic table is shown only in 1st page. I want this table to be shown in every page. Please help me solve this.
    Regards,
    Devaiah

    hi,
    Thank you all for your reply. But i cannot keep the table in body page as i want this table to be displayed in every page in the header.  Actually i am displaying an address through this table.
    I have moved the content area in master page to center and reduced its size and in the body page i have placed a table which will display the report. When this table overflows to next page all the contents in master page are shown except for the address table in master page. I am not sure whether i am doing it the right way as i am bit new to adobe forms.
    Please let me know where am i going wrong. Also please suggest me some alternative method ( if any ) to display the address in every page if the above method is not feasible.
    Regards,

  • Problems when I copy a text from master page field to body page field

    Extra code is one of the pitfalls of using WYSIWYG cutting and pasting,
    and using styling in general.
    So while it may be interesting to try to reduce the amount of code, there
    probably won't be any direct approach without extra steps to get you what
    you want with bare bones code that appears as you want it to or at least acceptable.
    I guess you might have to take a screen image, clip the relevant portion, since
    you can only attach an image file here not a text file.

  • Problem to change the master page height using javascript

    Hi everyone,
    I've been trying it but no luck... appreciate any helps possible.. Thanks!
    I've a masterpage called 'UILayout':
    Long(Height)=100mm, Short(Width)=100mm
    I've a button click event with the script to set the Long to 160mm:
    ====================================
    //display current height
    var curHeight = xfa.form.form1.pageSet.UILayout.medium["long"];
    xfa.host.messageBox("Current Height = " + curHeight);
    //set height to 160mm
    xfa.form.form1.pageSet.UILayout.medium["long"]="160mm";
    //relayout the pageArea
    xfa.layout.relayoutPageArea(0);
    ====================================
    Doesn't work, I wrote another button click event to retrieve the height, and it returned 160mm. But the layout just doesn't refresh with the changed height....i'm using LC Designer 8.2, form saved as Dynamic XML PDF , compability set to 7.0.5, view in Acrobat Pro 7.1. Thanks...

    I do not think you will be able to adjust the Master page size as it is tied to the Content Area size as well. I tried to adjust the pageisze and the content size but it was ignored. I can get at the properties to change them but that is it.

  • Master Page Flow Problems

    I am trying to flow 4 xml documents into structured FrameMaker template that is 4 pages. The last page has 3 different master page versions. I have set the StructMasterPageMaps up to direct the page flow for the final page to the correct back page master page, depending on the value for the version attribute. The data is not flowing correctly. The master page that precedes this back master page is 2 column. If the data for this page only flows into the first column, and the second column is empty, the back page data flows into the correct version of the back master page. If the second column has data in it, the back page flows onto a new page but applies the master page used by the preceding data. It doesn’t apply the correct back master page version.
    Does anyone know how I can correct this?

    Michael,
      It is certainly posible to map a master page to an element that does not contain text directly but is the root of a sub-hierarchy of elements. Examples include elements for a chapter or list.
