Overriding doesn’t completely disassociate the object from its master item original rather, the object will continue to update with the master item except for your overrides. You’re then free to change it however you like. It will unlock, override, and become a document page item. To override (access) one master item at a time, CMD+SHIFT-click/CTRL+SHIFT-click on the master page item. In other words: Ow! Can’t touch this! The difference in the way the two apps handle master page items can be frustrating at first, but rest assured, you can override those untouchable master page items.
Unlike XPress, InDesign locks master page items to prevent accidental repositioning and alteration. If you’re a QuarkXPress super freak newly boogying to the InDesign beat, you’ll notice that you can’t just click to select master page items on document pages. But what about those occasions when a document page requires something a little different, when a master page item needs to be altered in one instance only? That’s where it’s useful to override or detach the item from the master page. Putting common elements on a master page lets you alter those elements on all document pages with one change to the master. Everyone knows how important master pages are in expediting the creation of multi-page documents with common elements, such as page numbers, headers, footers, and backgrounds. Nothing too hard core, just enough to start your feet tapping. Let’s start simply with an introductory groove.
