Research direction

Reproduce the issue by appending objects between two blends, changing their page manually or with the "Move to Page" button, and exporting with the receiving Age's page settings. Trace how the imported objects retain and then update their PRP/page assignment. Done means exporting succeeds after moving objects to an existing page without restarting B4K.

Description

Another one of those "meant to post this long ago, but completely forgot" issues.

When appending objects between one Korman blend to another, the objects that are imported carry over the PRP/page to which they were assigned in the other blend.

If the receiving blend doesn't have that particular page in the Age settings, when exporting, it rightly mentions "invalid page".

However, if you do switch the objects over to an existing page, the error still comes up when trying to export.

The current solution to this is to save, quit, then restart B4K.

Note that this seems to happen when changing objects over manually and with the "Move to Page" button.
