Anchor a custom master page

Question

Is it possible to anchor a custom master page?. I'm using a custom master page for rotated pages to adapt as well the header and footer but I want to use the same text flow. When I'm inserting something before the rotated page, it moves all the content. So text which should be on the rotated page moves then to the following normal pages.

By addressing the master page usage, I couldn't find any function which anchors it to the text like e.g. tables or anchored figures.

My system: Win7-64, FM11 (unstructered).

View > Master PagesNavigate to page MasterPageMapsDoesn't exist?Then do: Format > Page Layout > Apply Master Pages (AMP)This creates the page and an empty UnstructMasterPageMaps table.Designate a paragraph format (aka tag or style) that is unique to the rotated page content, such as Body.Rotated, which may wel be identical to Body in all but name.Assuming your rotated MPs are named Left.Rotated and Right.Rotated, fill out the UnstructMasterPageMaps table, such as:Tag NameRight-HandedLeft-HandedRange IndicatorCommentBody.RotatedRight.RotatedLeft.RotatedUntil ChangedTriggers landscapeBodyRightLeftUntil ChangedResumes portraitOptimal trigger/resume tags are highly dependent on document structure and may require some experimentation.Once set up, you need to do a manual AMP operation for initial MP assignment, and periodically as re-flow occurs. You can do this as above, or from the Book menu (it's an Update Book option)

Tag Name	Right-Handed	Left-Handed	Range Indicator	Comment
Body.Rotated	Right.Rotated	Left.Rotated	Until Changed	Triggers landscape
Body	Right	Left	Until Changed	Resumes portrait
