    Questions specific to InDesign Scripting should be asked on the InDesign Scripting forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign/indesign_scripting

     

    To answer your question, you should loop through all page items and use myPageItem.detach() (assuming it's an overridden master page item).

    Are you sure you want to be doing that though? I can not recall ever having a good reason to detach all master page items...

    You can only detach overridden page items.

     

    First override the master page items and then detach the local one.
