How do I get my custom master pages to display in the the Master Page Usage dialog?

Maybe I don't understand the master page. I have a portrait document and I want a landscape page in the middle of it. I also have a landscape master page in a separate file. I added a Disconnected Page where I want the landscape page and thought I could apply the landscape master page to it, kind of like importing formats.

I followed Barb Binder's instructions but they aren't working for me.

Hi barbshoop :

The default Left and Right masters (showing in your screen shot) are part of every new double-sided FrameMaker document.

When you perceive the need for additional master pages, you have to create them. It does not appear that you have done that yet. What instructions of mine were you following? Was it this post on the Rocky Mountain Training blog?

Yes, BarbBinder. I was following the instructions in the Rocky Mountain Training blog.

Are you saying I need to create a new landscape master page every time I need a landscape page in a portrait document? Can't I have one already setup and use as a template? I do have several setup in separate files..
