    I have a vertical (portrait) document in which I am trying to create a horizontal (landscape) alternate layout

    I want to Link Stories and Copy Text Styles to New Style Group. However, when I try to create the alternate layout, I get an error dialog that says:
    “One or more of the styles were not mapped. Cannot create a mapped style when one of the source styles is based on another source style.”

    Following which, the alternate layout is NOT created.

    There are many text styles based on others; but this alone should not prevent the creation of a New Style Group nor certainly not the new alternate layout. I did not create this document originally, and wonder if anyone has any advice on where to begin looking for correction to this error?

    Thanks,
    –Diane

    Caution: no solution offered in this post. ;-\ Just commiseration …

    Ouch! Weird!

    Hrm. It has to be a new glitch otherwise we would’ve encountered it already … Alt Layouts have been around since CS6.

    Erica Gamet does a lot of work w/the feature … could be worth a ping to her.
