A quick shortcut would be to create a page with no lists on it and briefly switch to that page. Just make sure your options are setup to release on page changes.
Or, try [next page] followed by [pig]+[next page] to quickly change to the next page, then back to the previous page.
if you have your change page behavior set on leave in background, then just create a macro where you choose all the masters one at the time and release them. Edit your macro time a little bit and you should have your macro ready to release only the current page!
I'm not looking for a work around. Thanks for the suggestions though.
btw When I work in release on page change mode I usually capture activity too. I hear what you are saying but for me not a good option. Also if someone else stepped in to run the console they would need to know what page to change to. Same issue with using a macro. Possible misfire of wrong page or macro not good either.
Maybe for Steph's idea something like PIG RELEASE while holding PAGE ?????
