1. With Adjust Layout ON, Text Frames shrink to extremely tiny size on changing Margins.

   I am working in Adobe InDesign CC 2019 14.0.1. When I have a manuscript already flowed into my document and try to adjust the margins on the master page with Adjust Layout enabled, when the new margins are applied to the document, all the existing text boxes "disappear." From what I can tell, they have been resized down to an infinitely small point in the middle of the spread. Obviously, this is not useful. I used to be able to adjust the margins across an entire book-length document in one go with layout adjustment, and the text on every page would be re-fit to the new margins. The attached screenshots show the before and after on a spread (you can see the tiny text box in the middle in the after).

   Am I missing a step here, or is this a bug?

   CC2019 14.0.1 MacOS
   If I have a custom size page in the document (with it's own custom margins), that is smaller than the documents default margins – I get an error message every time I make InD active.

   To repoduce:
   -Make new document – A4 with 20 mm margins
   -Add one page
   -Change margins on new page to 0 mm
   -Change with of new page to 10 mm width
   -Hide InDesign
   -Reactivate InDesign – Error message shown

3. Text margins don't change when master pages are applied

   Version: InDesign CC2019
   Steps to reproduce: Apply a new Master page, with different margins, to a document page with text frame
   Expected result: Text frame should resize to fit the new margins of the master page (as before with Layout Adjustment enabled)
   Actual result: Page margins change but text frame stays the same. Useless! I have to manually adjust the text block to fit the new margins.

   I work in book publishing. When laying out a book, it's often necessary to make changes to the margins of certain pages, either to accommodate the dropped opening of a chapter, or to set a spread a line long or short to avoid unsightly widows. I do this by applying a master page to adjust the margins accordingly. Up until now (assuming Layout Adjustment was enabled), the text frame margins would adjust to match the new master page margins. But in InDesign 2019, Enable Layout Adjustment is gone, and though the page margins change properly, the text frame doesn't change, and I have to manually drag it into shape. This is a big time-waste and a PITA. I've tried fiddling with all the new settings, and nothing restores the old behavior. Someone suggested that creating the document with "Primary Text Frame" enabled would make things work properly, but no luck.
