HI,

 

Are you grouping the master page items via a script? if so it would be useful to see the script you are using?

 

Regards

How do I resolve this issue.

 

You cannot resolve this issue.

That's how master spreads are working.

 

What you could do:

Add a graphic frame to the left page, add another one to the right page. Both are the size of the pages. Perhaps add to the size the bleed area that is not at the spine. Add the group inside the frame of the left page, add a duplicate of the group to the frame on the right page. That will separate objects to their respective pages.

My doc has two masters (Master spreads A & B). The second master spread (B-Master) was created based on the first master (A-Master).

 

When I override the second maser page objects (B-Master), it also has the objects from A-Master.

Well. I'm a little confused what and why you are doing things to master page items.

You said you are adding groups to masters. Then there are masters based on masters. And now you override master page items?

 

Are we still talking scripting here?

 

Best provide a sample document with a start situation.

Also code that is showing what you are doing with the items on masters.

And, very important, why you are doing things.

 

Then we could discuss how you are doing things best.

You could re-thread the text frames. No need for a group. See into property nextTextFrame and previousTextFrame of object textFrame.
