            Bug ID: 129707
           Summary: Draw: no command to apply a master to all (selected)
                    pages
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: needsUXEval
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Draw
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

When a Draw document has several master pages, there's no command to apply some
master to all (or selected) normal pages.

Steps:

1. Create a new Draw document.
2. Switch to Master view.
3. On default master, add a shape.
4. Add a New Master page (it will be named "Default 1").
5. Put another distinct shape on this new master.
6. Switch to Normal view.
7. Add several pages (all of them will be based on Default master).
8. Now try to apply "Default 1" master to a selection of normal pages, or to
all normal pages.

There is a Page->Master Page command in menu; and also there's "Change Slide
Master" command when a single *master* page is right-clicked in Pages pane,
opening the same dialog (but apparently just navigating to another master page,
without e.g. refreshing Pages pane - but that's a different issue); but it
doesn't work for multi-selection, or for all (and Normal mode even doesn't even
have it in context menu). Properties in sidebar also don't affect multiple
selected pages. The changes only appear on the first (active) of all selected
pages.

And Master view also apparently doesn't provide a command to e.g. "apply this
master to pages".

In short: a command to apply a master to all selected pages is needed,
available from shortcut menu in Normal view's Pages pane.
