Watermark linked to a table or anchored frame

[RaulM21]

Hello

I'm having a problem. I have a table wich has a watermark. I created two more master pages with the watermark and applied to the pages containing the table.

The problem comes when I add or remove some pages before this tables. The master page still applied to the same number page and the tables pages not.

I tried to insert the watermark into an anchored frame positioned 'Outside column' but it overlaps the table content.

How can I solve the problem?

Thank you in advance

Best regards.

You should be using the Master Page mapping to tie a specific paragrah (i.e. the one used to anchor the table) to a custom Master Page.

The implication of this is that para formats in table cells cannot trigger page maps, which is my recollection of this, and seems to be true for the FM7.x that I have at hand.

If the table can span pages, it would be necessary to specify "Until changed" in the UnstructMasterPageMaps on Reference Page MasterPageMaps.

That, of course, implies that some other para fmt is set to trigger reversion to normal Left/Right after the table. So you might need para fmts named "AnchorWaterMarkTable" and "EndWaterMarkTable".

Thank you very much. This solved my problem.

It's not automatic, but only need to reapply master pages.
