Hello Corel Community.
I seem to run into a bug with the Master Layers feature every now and then.
Basically I create 50 plus page documents that need to feature a Title Block on each page.
Every so often, I will save a document with a Title block on a master layer. When I reopen the document, the Title block will no longer be on the Master Layer, but instead, dispersed as a layer on each page of the document. Meaning, every page has the title block, but not through the master layer feature.
I'm not sure why this occurs.
I do down-save from x6 to x3 on occasion, as other coworkers with x3 need to access the file. But this is not necessarily happening all the time.
It seems as if it may just become corrupted and when occurrence happens, to build a new document. Was just curious if this happens much among the community.
Thanks!

I think this is probably the clue. There was a significant change in the layers structure between X3 and X4, so if your X6 document uses a master page layer feature that has no exact equivalent in X3, it might be necessary to copy the layer to individual pages.
Are you able to compare the layer structure of an X3 file with the problem and the actual X6 file that produced it?
Hello,
Thanks for the reply.
So I work with scale elevations in the Environmental Design Field of Graphic Design.
I have used the same layer structure. By layer structure I mean, objects and type to make up the Title block Master Layer.
As I work it out in my head, I almost can see Corel encountering a problem with the import, and to placing what is on the master layer on every page as a default action. The problem is, When I try to reset this by deleting the extra layers corel created, adding a new master layer with the Title block, it will do the same if I re-open at a later date...
I figure I must rebuild the document, I just hoped this issue would be a common bug with a resolution to not have to deal with rebuilding the 50 + page docs in the future...
If anyone else has encountered this issue, please do tell,
Thanks again
