Thanks for this!! Curious, how does this compare to starting with a single master and liquid settings per object, then adding the other sized pages, later, via ‘alternate layout’ + liquid settings? I also wonder if there is a way to build on one master and have the different sized pages all inherit the objects according to liquid rules. This seems to be an hugely useful, but still-underexplored, tricky topic. I’m not sure anyone has truly found the fastest, simplest way, yet.

I attempted the alternate layout option and liquid layout rules. A general solution was much more difficult to achieve. The newer Adjust Layout feature, with its ability to keep content in page zones was more flexible with less fuss. Note I said “less”, not “no”!

@@Luminousworks Ah, amazing. Appreciate the further info! (Also, yeah, I accept that there will be a little fuss, no matter what...)
