problem with the "share layer to pages" option. Please help

Feb 11, 2011 2:15 AM

Hi evreryone,

 

When i create an object on a page with one of the shape tools like the rectangle or rounded rectangle something very annoying happens. It appears on all the other pages. Now, i've not set any page as a master page. So there is no reason this should be. I looked in the options for layers and noticed that the "share layer to pages" option is check by default. So i unchecked it and it's dialogue box popped up and i removed the element from the relevant page. But all this does is remove all  the objects from the page. Please help. I just want to be able to create objects on pages individually.

Thanks

    You need to select Single Layer Editing from the Layers panel menu.

     Thanks for that Linda. It's worked. I can now add a shape to page 2 without it appearing on page 1.

     

     The only problem that remains is that I can't remove/edit a shape on page 2 that was already on page 1 without affecting that same element on page 1. Single Layer Editing doesn't seem to help in this case. It only works for adding a new element to page 2 but not when i removing or editing.

     

    Also, is there a way to create a fresh page that's not a duplicate.

     

     Thanks for your answers.

    Make sure the object is not on the Master page.
