Anchored text box in a table cell with text threads crashes when cutting
As the title says. It sounds similar to past bugs.
First, create a text box and add a table.
Create a separate, new text box and add a single character in it.
Anchor the text box to any cell in the table.
Enable "Show Text Threads" from the View > Extras menu.
Selecting and attempting to cut the table will lead to a long hang and crash.This is on the latest version of InDesign at the moment, 17.0. I am on Windows 10 20H2 19042.1288. I can verify this occurring on two separate systems.
I've included a video walking…5 votesHi,

InDesign 2022 crash when updating modified links in an existing document
I just updated to InDesgin CC 17.0. I have a MacBook Pro 2020, with OS 10.15.7. Trying to open an InDesign CS 6 file with modified links to other InDesign documents causes the application to hang up and I have to force quit it. It doesn’t matter if I choose update links or don’t update links in the dialog box. In trying to quit and reopen I did manage to recover the document, but I still cannot resolve the modified links problem, since the application hangs up every time I try to update the links in the links pallet. Same…

Using Text Wrap around objects causes InDesign to crash!
When I apply a text wrap but only around an object, the program crashes and closes. The other text wrapping tools work fine.
I noticed a blue cercle on the icon of text wrap around an object (see the screenshot joined). I'm not sure this is normal... maybe it would help you solve the problem...
When I click on this tool, a windows opens (see second screenshot) and then Indesign crashes and closes.
You can note that I am using the latest version of Indesign (16.4).
Thank you very much for your help.

InDesign crashes when deleting a page that contains a tagged and locked graphic frame.
Environment: InDesign 2020 or 2021 (16.3.2 or 15.1.3 Japanese version) + macOS 11.5.2
These are the steps:
1) Create a new document, create a graphic frame on the first page, and place an image on the frame.
2) Add a tag to the graphic frame. (For example, "root")
3) Lock the graphic frame.
4) Add one page.
5) InDesign crashes when you delete a page with a graphic frame.Here is a file that can be reproduced.

After changing workspace the extension panels become huge
After changing workspace the extensions panels contents become huge. Clicking on anything in the panel does not work. Turning the panel off and on, changing workspace several times does not help. Only restarting the application makes the panel the standard size (zoom). Today I updated the application to the latest version, but the previous version also had the problem.
This is terribly annoying because I have to turn indesign off and on dozens of times during the day.
