In Adobe InDesign, is there a way to restore an group element that's been overridden from a master to its original master state? I found this answer for restoring position to an overridden element:


Select the offending text frame, and open the palette options in the Pages palette. Choose Master Pages→Remove Selected Local Overrides.


Unfortunately, it seems only to work for single elements, not groups. If you select an overridden group, the Remove Selected Local Overrides menu item will change to Remove All Local Overrides.

Is there some way to restore master status for a group, or is this feature simply missing from InDesign?

If your elements are grouped in the Master Pages, you can apply 'Remove Selected Local Overrides' to the whole group.

If the dropdown menu allows only 'Remove All Local Overrides', it means that you grouped the elements outside the Master page.

All you have to do is to ungroup them before removing the overrides.
