Creating spreads using single pages

[john_g_knight@adobeforums.com]

How do I create spreads using single pages instead of facing pages?

I used to be able to do this in Quark, but I can't figure out how to do it in InDesign.

Thanks

John, I do not understand.
To my mind a "spread" are two facing pages.
What is it you want?

If you want to keep single pages together you can select your pages in
the page palette - go to the Flyout menu and select "Keep Spread
Together" - this leaves the selected pages signed with a bracket and
allows the pages to stay together if you drag to the desired position.

I am trying to create a layout similar to this:

When I drag down a master page next to an existing page it drops down below instead of staying side-by-side to create a spread.

Nina, Thanks for your response, but the "Keep Spread Together" command only lets me move the spread as a unit. It does not allow me to create, as in this example, a 3 page spread using single pages.

Thanks everyone for your help. As seen by this example, it can be done in Indesign. I am sure I will be embarrassed when I find out how easy it is.

Thanks

In the pages palette flyout menu disable allow pages to shuffle.

Thanks Robert for your help.

And yes, I am embarrassed by how easy it was.
