Hi Three very quick questions please 🙏(well, the required replies are short/quick lol!):
1) If I want to apply a black background to all pages of my document via a master page, the only way to do this is to create a rectangle with a black fill and drag it to cover the entire master page's white canvas (and apply this master page to all the pages), correct?
(*ie. There's no way to just set black as the default canvas color for this document, or for the master page which will be applied to all pages.)
2) If I want to apply different elements to the document's pages (eg. page numbers / black background rectangle / shape), for EACH element I want to apply to the rest of the pages, I should create a SEPARATE master page for it, right?
(*ie. I should not create ONE master page which contains ALL the different elements I want to apply throughout the document, and just apply this master to all the pages - because if the master has a black rectangle background, and a page number, in it, I would want the black rectangle to be the lowest layer on each page, while the page number on the top of the list..)
3) How do I "tell" the app on what LAYER LEVEL to apply the master page in the pages that it's applied to (given that the master page, as opposed to the rest of the pages, only contains ONE layer: the element that will be applied throughout the document - eg. a page-number layer on its own)?
(*eg. if all the pages have photos that take up the entire page - so each page has multiple layers of photos - if I want to apply a page number to all these pages, this applied layer needs to be ABOVE all the pages' layers so that the page numbers are visible. But, by default, AP applies this page-number layer on the master to the BOTTOM of the layers' list of each page, making the page number invisible as it's hidden behind the all photos' layers which cover each page! So to fix this, the only way I see possible, is to MANUALLY drag the page-number layer to the top of the layers' list for EACH of the 100+ pages... :
🙄 Which of course beats the purpose of master page instant global application lol)
THANK YOU!!
