Add flag button Uniform Margins to the Document margins into Layout/Margins and Columns

In the Layout/Margins and Coloumns window menu when I have selected a Master Page, I find no way to re-uniform the margins to the original margins set for the entire document. This would be a useful feature: when I changed the format adding 4mm to my 17x24 cm to be 17x24,4cm as the standard used by Amazon kdp for paper format, I would like to preserve the preceding paging by adding 2 mm to the inferior and superior margins. I did it in the menu File/set document for the whole document, but I saw my pages did not update since the format was manually set for the Master pages. So I had to change manually again the format for each master page in the Layout/Margins and colums menu. If I could set the command "uniform to the document settings" (in the position I put on the image attached) if would be more professional and it would also follow the document settings if I change format again.

 

Could you please implement this flag button?

Hey @RigaEdizioni,  

 

Unfortunately, there isn’t a direct feature for this in InDesign right now. You’ll need to adjust the master page margins manually.  

But here’s a thought: why not raise this as a feature request on Adobe UserVoice? Drop the link here once you do, and we can rally the community to upvote it. The more love it gets, the higher the prioritization it would get.🚀  

Catch you soon!  

 

Best,

Abhishek
