Menu items New Master and Delete Master keep being active after master view has been switched on and off, and they act in a different way, namely creating or deleting pages instead of masters.
Steps to reproduce:
Open the attachment, which contains 3 pages with irrelevant content and two masters, of which the second, named "mei", is not connected to any page, so deletion is possible.
Select View -> Master, select the second master "mei" (to activate the menu items, at leat the delete item), then close this view by using the symbol of the toolbar "Master View". The same effect may be got by closing the master view using View -> Normal, but there it seems that the reaction depends on whether the focus was on the working area containing a page of the drawing in the meantime, so there is still no exact scenario to be followed, although the problem could be reproduced also for this situation.
The menu items Page -> New Master or ...Delete Master are still active. Moreover, if you use them, they will not affect a master, but the current page of the document instead.

The items in question are in the menu "Slides" in Impress and "Page" in Draw.

I can confirm, that the items are active. The other way round, "New Page" and "Delete Page" are deactivated in Master view. Similar "New Master" and "Delete Master" should be deactivated in Normal view.

Sounds the same as bug 112644?
Comment 3 Jörn Schwarz 2020-01-18 14:50:24 UTC
I confirm this behavior.

Indeed, and I think I overlooked that because I searched in Draw bugs, and this bug is in Impress.
Yousuf Philips in comment 1 there pointed to the probable reason for the misbehaviour, I think.
