Freeway Reference: Working with Pages

The next screenshot (right) shows the HTML item

containing the word “photographer” selected on the

Welcome page, and you can see that this is a Master

item because its Name/ID begins with “m”—in this

case the item is called “m2” (which, if you select the

item on the Master page itself, is what it is called there

as well). Another way to tell that this item is a Master

item is by looking in the Inspector to see that the

various “Use Master …” options are listed).

Note that the Site Panel shown in the screenshot above

is in Page mode (which is displayed when you click

on the header bar of the Site Panel to toggle the view

from “Site” to “Page”) so you can see all the items on

just that page. With the item selected on the page, you

can see that the Site Panel has the item called “m2”

highlighted.

As mentioned earlier, graphic items imported into

an item drawn on the page will not use a Name/ID

beginning with “m” in the same way as other items

drawn on the page will do—as can be seen in the

screenshot on the right. Note that the logo in the top

right of the page is selected, and this item was created

by drawing a graphic item on the page and then

importing a graphic into it. The name displayed in the

Name/ID field (and the name of the item in the Site

Panel list) is the name of the imported graphic file but

without the file suffix (.jpg, .gif, etc.).

Although the name of the item does not start with the

letter “m” as other Master items do, it is still possible

to see that this item is a Master item because the four

different Use Master… options appear underneath

the Name/ID field of the Inspector (even though two

of them are greyed out in the screenshot). If you see those options displayed in the Inspector when an item is selected, this will always

mean that the item has been inherited from the Master page.

As you can see in the next screenshot, if you select a

unique item on that page (i.e., one that was drawn on

the Site page and not on the Master page) you won’t

see the Name/ID beginning with the letter “m” (as

it did when selecting the item containing the word

“photographer”) and you won’t see any Use Master…

options in the Inspector.

Earlier, you will have seen that we said: “How much

you decide to use on your Master page in terms of

common content is entirely up to you” —and the

reason this was mentioned is because you need to know

what will happen to a Master item or page setting if

you move or resize it, and what Master Settings will

still be used on that item if you edit the content of a

Master item on a Master page. This is a very important

part of the concept of Master items, and learning the

differences between the different settings will mean you may want to work in a different way.

Before moving on to the four different Use Master Settings, you may have noticed that the selected Master items in the screenshots

of the Welcome page display with red handles around them. Please note that this is nothing to do with how Master items display, it is

simply due to those items being locked on the Master page. In the Using Freeway tutorial we recommend that you lock Master items

to prevent them being accidentally moved on the Site pages. If you decide not to lock Master items, you will see no difference to the

handles of selected items. You can read about locking items in the Working with Items section of this manual.

The “Use Master…” options for pages and items in the Inspector’s General Settings tab

As shown in the screenshots of Master items earlier, there are up to four Use Master… options displayed in the General Settings tab of

the Inspector:

•

• UseMasterSettings

• UseMasterActions

• UseMasterChildren
