Why do I use multiple master layouts?

Search for: Why do I use multiple master layouts?

  1. All layouts sit inside a master layout
  2. There can be multiple of them (later on this)
  3. A master layout has child layouts
  4. child layouts cannot have child layouts
  5. child layouts inherit from their master layout, like header, footer etc.
  1. Say, most pages want a divider line between title and the content. Say these are 100 pages.
  2. So you do that....
  3. Now you want a page that doesn't have that title
  4. Say these are 10 pages
  5. These pages cannot use a layout from the other master because they will get the line a the top!
  6. So you need to create another master layout without that line!
  7. Now you have 2 masters!
  8. there may be other ways to do it, but this is one way!
  1. These are limited controls like list boxes (text), images, lines etc.
  2. These are allowed on master layouts and child layouts
  3. Experiment and see what they are!
