I also have this problem and have reported the crash 253, 612 times. I exaggerate, but it feels like that. It's just one column in a large file. I can't delete it, I can't move it, I can't adjust it, I can't do anything without it crashing. I'm going insane.

Hi,
Myself Sanyam Talwar from InDesign Engineering team, I am currently investigating the current issue.

During our analysis of issue mentioned in the thread, we found that you had reported a crash with an older release of InDesign.

We have released InDesign CC2019.0.1 with lot of stability fixes. If you are not on 14.0.1.209 then I would recommend you to upgrade to latest version as it is more robust.

If you still face an issue with the latest release, please submit the crash report. Guidelines to submit crash are available at https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/submit-crash-reports.html

I have a document that keeps crashing when I resize text frames. I tried saving as .idml and reopening in InDesign - it crashed as soon as I tried to resize a text frame. This is a 24 page program that I've resaved for several years because will be a lot of work to start from scratch. Can you help me?
