Doh, layouts are were you create your blueprints. You find it your Navigator at left, if you don't have this palette, then turn it on under Windows in menu.
There you have something called Layout Book. On your layouts you put your viewsets. A viewset is a view setup of something in your model. A plan, section/elevation, detail or whatever.
Masterlayout are your template layout for different papersizes. You are not able to place drawings on masterlayout, you will have to create layouts on the 'directory' above masterlayout section. You find buttons for creating layouts. And right button at your mouse have often the commands you need.
I will recommend : Try and error, the best way to learn is to test all buttons on a software and see what happend
