Hi All A question to do with page properties ...
I have a 50 page Journal that I produce every month. I use the "Rolling Template" style of doing this, ie I take the last issue, delete all the photos and text, re-date it and re-number it (on the Master pages) and start to populate it with the new material. This way I retain any changes I have made to the layout as I go along. Most months, as sections change in size, I have to add and delete pages. My question is - how can I, (or is it possible to make Scribus), re-order the Left and Right layout of the pages correctly when you do this? If I add a page it sets the new page correctly _but_ all subsequent pages are now incorrect. Likewise if I delete a page all subsequent pages are incorrect and one needs to go through the whole rest of the document correcting this and, worse still, re-aligning text frames, graphics etc. So to paraphrase If I have a 5 page document it would be - Right, Left, Right, Left, Right. If I now _ADD_ a new page in the second position I get - Right, Left, Left, Right, Left, Right. Instead of - Right, Left, Right, Left, Right, Left. I seem to think that one time I was experimenting with a different layout and got this to work correctly but I could be wrong!! If I have done something wrong in my current layout or Materpages I have no idea what it is and would be pleased to know. I'm using Scribus 1.3.9 on PCLinuxOS 2012. Thanks for any help.
