CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 Guidebook

Chapter 15: Page Layout | 203

To change the stacking order of layers on

the page, click the Layer manager view

button in the Object manager docker,

choose Current page, layers only, and

drag the layers to reorder them.

Odd-page and even-page master layers
CorelDRAW

In a multipage document, you can create
master layers for all pages, for odd pages, or
for even pages. For example, placing content
on an odd-page master layer means that the
content will appear on all odd pages but not
on even pages.

Give it a try

1 Create a multipage document by clicking
Layout ` Insert page and specifying the
number of pages you want.

2 If the Object manager docker is not open,
click Tools ` Object manager.

3 In the Object manager docker, click an
odd page (for example, Page 1 or Page 3).

4 In the upper-right corner of the Object
manager docker, click the flyout button
, and click New master layer (odd
pages).
When the default layer name appears, you
can rename the layer.

5 With the odd-page master layer selected,
create an object on the drawing page.
The object appears on all odd pages in the
document.

To create an odd-page master layer, make

sure that the active page is an odd page.

Objects placed on an odd-page master layer (such as the

ellipse in this example) appear on all odd pages of the

document.

Page numbers

CorelDRAW

You can insert page numbers on the current

page, all pages, all odd pages, or all even

pages. When you insert page numbers on

multiple pages, a new master layer is

automatically created, and the page number is

placed on it. The master layer can be an all-

page master layer, an odd-page master layer, or

an even-page master layer.

The following options are available for

inserting a page number:

• On active layer — lets you insert a page
  number on the layer that is currently
  selected in the Object manager docker. If
  the active layer is a master layer, page
  numbers are inserted on all pages of the
  document where the master layer is visible.
  If the active layer is a local layer, the page
  number is inserted on the current page
  only.
