    This is my 3rd or 4th attempt at replying here. Messages won’t appear for some reason. I successfully reset preferences after a 3rd attempt. Still no change, it was only a fresh install of InDesign so I couldn’t imagine preferences could have become corrupt on the first project on that install? I tried the project on a different machine… same issue. So I’m just in the process of rebuilding the same project from scratch, hopefully I don’t run into the same issue. It’d be nice to know what’s going on all the same.

    Tried that twice, didn’t get a splash screen either time having held down ctrl alt & shift the whole way through program start up, and then some.

    Checked the issue anyway, still persists. Cheers!

    No joy, thanks though.

    Must say it’s driving me mad. I’ve used photoshop for years and years along with various other Adobe tools, so thought this should be a breeze. I was going well until I hit this… I’m just stumped. In the process of starting again from scratch, hoping the same issue doesn’t crop up again.

    At least I thought I had sorted it… apparently not. You can see from the short video below that there are no duplicates on the master. You can also see that some of these objects are capable of being overridden. However some objects when clicked (ctrl shift click), produce duplicates.

    I seem to have sorted it out anyway. Strange.. on more than one page there seemed to be an empty frame/object covering the whole page. I wasn’t getting the duplication thing when I went back to it today like yesterday but that empty object layered on top of other objects seemed to be still hindering my overriding attempts. Also, not sure where the empty object came from, wasn’t on the master, but was on more than one page.

    Just have to put it down to lack of experience. Thanks again!

    Thanks for the replies and suggestions. I don’t have access to the project file/computer in question until tomorrow but I have since opened up a new project on my own pc with no issues. Can override master objects on various pages.

    Good suggestion mtngigi, having read that I thought duplicates on the master might be an idea, but then thinking about it more, most of the objects on the master are of about 50% opacity and this remains consistent throughout. If there were duplicates of these on the master surely the opacity of the elements would be brought up to 100%?!

    I’ll have to wait until tomorrow to investigate the project file in question further, let you know then.
