How can I make my content follow my master when master page size is changed?

I have a header with a menu structure etc. that is set as a master page. When I create a new page and apply the master to this page, everything looks fine. I will then start designing the rest of the page. However, if my master page should change size, the content of the page it is applied to will not move accordingly. What am I doing wrong?

 

I'll try explaining it with an example:

Say my header on my master page is originally 250px in height, and I design all the pages using this master, but then decide that my header needs to increase to 300 px in height. Then my master header will just be laid OVER the content of the page. Isn't there a way to make the content under the header move automatically when the master size is changed?

 

Also, it really should be possible to add more than one master to a page.

    It should be the case that content in the page will move down when the header in the Master has increased in size (or visa versa). Is it possible that a different master page was assigned to that page?

    The correct master is applied, but I can't get it to work. Am I doing something wrong with the guides?

     

    I have included screenshots that show how the master looks, how the page with the master looks, and what happens when I change the size of the master page.

     

    Master:

    Page with applied master

    Content doesn't move when master page changes size

    Please let me know what I'm doing wrong!

    Try moving the blue header guide on the Master page below the content (below the menus). This should cause the child pages to adjust accordingly.
